Soltek SL-K8TPro-939
Have you ever had that special
bond with a piece of computer hardware that just threw you for a loop
for a long time, and once conquered became your best friend? Abit
motherboards are the first things to come to mind for me, with their
Soft Menu III its very easy to just forget a setting and stay up for
days wondering why your system isn't functioning the way you want it to.
I would like to say that after playing with the Soltek SL-K8TPro-939,
but the reality of it is that everyone makes mistakes, and its easier to
blame them on an object rather than your own misgivings. Its always that
ONE BIOS option that is overseen that can ruin your day. Luckily the
Soltek ran so well just as it is, that it was easy to just let it go and
have some fun with the most powerful processor platform you can buy
today. Lets have a look at it shall we...
