[H]ard does the Max series of products from Abit, this time in the AMD flavor. Legacy free products...
Further results of overclocking our AT7 can be seen above. While the system itself was rock solid at 200MHz FSB, having the AGP bus so far out of spec didn't leave us the ability to run 3D benchmarks. The reason behind the coloration of the screencap is that even our 2D output was a bit flaky. Still, we were able to loop hours of Prime95, which loads our CPU to 100%. Even at a 400MHz DDR bus, our mainboard and CPU seemed to be as strong as ever with our video card being what was holding us back, and understandably so.
