IC7-G

**Zroc** · 04-08-2003, 01:46 PM

Outstanding...

**Ruantic** · 04-08-2003, 03:19 PM

Looks like I'm gonna get that new Intel processor after all

**WildKard** · 04-08-2003, 09:30 PM

MMMMM my 2.4@3.6 sure would rock in that beast..any idea when it will be available i would love to get my hands on one ASAP i know that the Asus P4C800 is set to drop April 14th, which just happens to be my bday...but i can wait cause ABIT IS GOD

**Charles Wirth** · 04-08-2003, 10:32 PM

And if you will notice off the side IDE connectors, I wonder who came up with that idea

I want one now too.

Im eyeballing that CPU socket and it looks just about perfect for Prommie bracket. intentional im sure.

I wonder why the power was not put on the top edge of the board.

**WildKard** · 04-08-2003, 11:58 PM

Im pleased with the board layout, however it looks like the prommie might be "tricky" to get in there with the PilSy mod which i did and dropped my temps 7c!!

If you notice the 12v line is right next to the DIMMS i must say this is probably the first motherboard to do that, i cant think of any where the 12v line ISNT across the cpu on the "wrong" side of the board :/

Abit knows how to build em great, they are refering to these as "gigasystems" and theyre capable of running 250fsb if ur ram/cpu can manage

I just love the colors. Looks absolutely something to die for. The northbridge fan looks sooo cute. But u guys should get the canterwood version of this board. Canterwood is better then Springsdale.

**Ragnarok** · 04-09-2003, 10:04 PM

IC7 is the canterwood

**Alexandrus** · 04-10-2003, 02:06 AM

I want one for sure, but I think it will cost like 200$ or so.
The only thing I do not like is the AGP Pro slot, nobody uses that.

**Dog_One** · 04-21-2003, 12:40 PM

It sure does look like a winner. This dude should be able to get everything your processor and cooling solution has to offer.

Anyone see it for sale or even pre-order in the US?

**Gamer67** · 04-21-2003, 12:50 PM

I have pre ordered one today but it is in the UK

Unconfirmed delivery on the 5th of May

Komplett.co.uk

Your Referring to the IC7-G? If so Aproximately what is the cost in US Dollars?

Would appreciate if you could post the info.

**Gamer67** · 04-21-2003, 01:17 PM

181 British Pound = 284.351 US Dollar

But I would think you would be looking in the $ 210-250 range, It is a normal practice to bend over and get reamed as far as prices on new gear in the UK

**Ruantic** · 04-21-2003, 01:20 PM

181 British Pound = 284.351 US Dollar

OUCH, that is a ream job, Was posted in Abit USA forum by an Abit rep 200-230 USD...

Thanks for the info...

**Colossus** · 04-21-2003, 10:49 PM

I think the board will be more then 200-230 at initial release

Probably more around $250-$280..

The Gigabyte board I had ordered (GA-8KNXP) was almost $300

Now if you went with the Ultra model, You are looking at $480 or so

The only difference between the ultra and non ultra is the builtin SCSI controller

**Ruantic** · 04-21-2003, 11:21 PM

All I can tell you is thats what the Abit Rep said over at the Abit USA forums.. I'm guessing your probably right, as I think everone is going to want to make some extra cash on the initial release....

**isp** · 04-22-2003, 02:56 AM

Yeah I think that's going to be a top notch board but I really can't afford it. heh. Don't think I'm alone either...

**Zroc** · 04-22-2003, 12:51 PM

Nope, it's not that bad. I ordered three IC7-G's today from my distro at $195 apiece. Expect web-pricing to be $20-30 more than that initially, and within a few weeks, these boards should be $200 or under across the web.

The IC7 pricing (according to Abit, same board without Gigabit LAN and Spdif input) was $150-ish. Not bad at all, considering what their high-end 845PE's cost, no?

Nice thanks for the info

Wouldn't be interested in pm'n me the Distro info would ya?

**PureBooYah** · 04-22-2003, 01:12 PM

http://www.azzo.com/af4/list.asp?Action=search&MnfID=3

can order them here right now, the IC7-G had an ETA of 4-25 earlier today, but they probably sold out of that shipment...i already ordered me a IC7

**Zroc** · 04-22-2003, 02:46 PM

Ruantic, it was MA Labs.
Most web prices will be like Pure's link for about a week or two...then they'll all be around $200 or under, I'd imagine.

**Ruantic** · 04-22-2003, 03:51 PM

Ruantic, it was MA Labs.

thanks, appreciate it...

**Ruantic** · 04-22-2003, 10:36 PM
