"This feature makes overclocking as simple as changing a BIOS menu option and rebooting. No machine dissaembly required..." True. However, most of the overclockers I know are 'tinkerers' and love to play around with their hardware. Some will even get upset if they don't have any jumpers to change. Although it makes it easier, it's too easy for some other people to dink around with the voltage and fry the boards...and believe me, they will...I've had atleast 3 come in in the past month for that reason. Overall though, the Abit motherboards are pretty good. Rich P.S. To Clarence: Sorry for not finding out more about your backup situation. By the looks of things, you've picked up some pretty good suggestions already.
