Introduction & Specifications
Abit aims squarely at the budget motherboard market with the KV8 Pro. It has everything you need, and stuff you don’t. Now with updated overclocking results (2:40pm EST Oct 28, 2004).
Abit has had a very strong showing here on PCPerspective. In the past two months, two Abit motherboards, the AV8 K8T800 Pro and AA8 Duramax 925X, have won Ryan’s coveted Editor’s Choice awards. So needless to say the expectations are high for today’s review of Abit’s KV8-Pro.
