    edit : is it a 6 layer board?

    The cost to me was 174$ + Tax.

    It does seem like a real nice board.

    Grayskull, will the board work with a ATX-20 PSU, or do I need a ATX24 ?

    @ Grayskull,

    Abit has seemed to turn to ati after the nforce 2 controversy and came late with nf3 and nf4 after reconciling with nvidia.

    Have you any comments on the board they are turning out? It almost looks like they went with ati's reference design however it seems they have implemented the ULi southbridge to possibly get around the performance issues of sata II and USB that ati's lacked slightly in.

    My only first impression of the board is they're heatpipe implemention is poorly applied as it was with the an8 ultra. Had they installed a fan on the actual heatsink end of the heatpipes it would be more effective although i think they were going for the fanless/quiet approach.

    Also any comments on what they used for capacitors? Usually they use sanyo oscon and rubycon caps.
