ABIT TH7 II RAID (1)
Ken 29 Aug 2001

The successor to the famous overclockable TH7 is here. Featuring the top quality components and an improved  overclocking features, ABIT TH7-II RAID would probably be the most overclockable P4 S478 board out there in the market today.

If you have read our TH7 RAID review earlier this year, you would already have noticed that the board is really something ! It is one of the few P4 S423 boards out there with it's SoftMenu III. Inheriting the best of TH7 is the TH7 II but with ABIT Engineered overclocking features and support for S478 + RAMBUS makes it the ultimate champion. Don't believe it ? We shall see in the next few pages.

So what the hell is ABIT Engineered ? We did an interview with Scott Thirwell, Regional marketing manager for ABIT and he told us the following 

'ABIT engineered' was developed to pass on ABIT engineers personal modifications to their systems to our users. This is extreme. Why? We are taking what our engineers design to make their systems overclock higher and giving that power to our end users. Look at the numbers of the TH7II-RAID and they are impressive. ABIT, with all of our P4 motherboards aim to provide the best in performance, the best in stability and the best in features. Our P4 line is a success. Be it high-end or mainstream, buying a P4 motherboard comes down to one choice - ABIT. This time around we came out first to market and we are different from all other motherboards and that is why ABIT will have the best selling P4 motherboards.
