Abit AI7 uGuru

[dannyaa]

What do you guys think of the ABIT AI7 uGuru mobo? I went to pick up the ABIT IS7 but Fry's was out of stock. The guy said this was the same, but a model up. Is that true? Is this a good choice mobo? How does it compare to the IS7?
It has the Intel 865PE/ICH5-R chipset.

Thanks,

Dan

(PS) please respond quickly... putting together the comp at the moment!

thanks, I know, but I think you missed the point. I already have the mobo, I bought it locally because I like to have it from local, I wanted to know about the ABIT AI7... thanks!

I have the AI7 and i think it is a great board, however the Uguru features are not really that amazing. I overclock and prefer to do it through the bios rather than using Uguru.

The IS7 is pretty much the same board, but apparently its on board sound is better than that of the AI7 (I dont use on board sound so couldnt care less). The IS7 is also cheaper which so I might be best to go with the IS7 unless yo really want Uguru.
