IL-90MV from Abit is a socket 478 motherboard targeted to Core Duo and Core 2 Duo Viiv systems, and its main feature is having a HDMI HDTV video output.

Here is a snippet: "Well, who thought Abit was dead is definitely wrong. After being bought by USI they are pushing hard on new products, including IL-90MV, a motherboard based on Intel 945GT chipset targeted to media center PCs, i.e. Viiv-compliant desktops. Abit chose socket 478 for this motherboard as mobile socket 478 CPUs like Core Duo and Core 2 Duo (for notebooks) consume less power thus produce less noise (as they run cooler they can use quieter coolers) than desktop CPUs, an important factor when you think of building a PC to stay on your living room. But this product highlight is its on-board HDMI output, being the first time we've seen such feature embedded on a motherboard. Let's take a look on this new product."
