Taipei, Taiwan, ROC, August 27, 2002 - After the spectacular success and critical acclaim of the now-legendary AT7 MAX, ABIT has written another chapter of motherboard history with the release of the AT7 MAX 2. Based on the highly-anticipated VIA KT400 chipset, the AT7 MAX2 gives ABIT users the MaxIImum Edge, with phenomenal value, performance and features. With 10 USB 2.0 ports, 3 IEEE 1394 ports, Serial ATA RAID, onboard LAN, 6-Channel Audio and ABIT Softmenu™, ABIT's AT7 MAX2 leads the motherboard industry by example.
ABIT Serillel™ ATA
The AT7 MAX2 comes complete with ABIT Serillel™ ATA, a converter cable that enables users to connect parallel HDDs to the serial ports on the AT7 MAX2. Users now have the option of using parallel or serial drives without having to worry about wasting system resources on unused serial ports. Users can now have the option of hooking up 4-channel RAID with parallel or serial drives, making the AT7 MAX2 the most flexible and user-responsive AMD motherboard on the market.
The MaxIImum Edge
With the AT7 MAX 2, ABIT has given users a cutting edge platform that will allow them to easily and smoothly adapt to the upcoming serial ATA technology, while allowing them to keep the technology they are comfortable with. ABIT is also the first motherboard company to fully support AMD's AthlonXP 333FSB CPUs on the latest ABIT AMD-based motherboards. With features like Serillel, serial ATA RAID and SoftMenu, no other motherboard maker can match ABIT's AT7 MAX2. Once again, ABIT leads the motherboard industry, giving users the MaxIImum Edge.
