It's not quite as loaded as their 975X board we've previously reviewed, but this 965 chipset offering still has plenty of features to take note of.

"The Abit AB9-Pro is thus far the fastest Intel board I've tested, CPU and peripheral hardware being equal. Oveclocking went well, especially once we updated the BIOS. Whether overclocked or stock, the AB9-Pro was rock solid during testing. Out of the box, once everything was hooked up, the system ran like a champ. Those of you with extensive storage needs should be very happy with the nine SATA connections available."
