A Blast To The Past

Abit KR7A-RAID was the first motherboard I bought from OcUK back in 2000 or early 2001, ran that along with an AMD 1700XP.

Used a 3DFX Voodoo 5500 64MB for playing EverQuest, the image quality on the Voodoo 5 creamed all over Nvidia cards at the time.

I looked through and saw the abit nf7-s v2 and basically did /thread in my head right there. I still have a working one of those epic epic boards.

My main heroic motherboard was the Abit NF7, which was awesome.
I remember OcUK doing an awesome deal on the first DFI 939 Crossfire motherboard (no way I'm remembering that name), couldn't resist at the time even though it was a pain with ram.
The colour scheme was great. Wish we could still get motherboards like it.
 
Loads of the above boards bring back happy overclocking memories, i think my most fun was had with a Phase Change cooled 3.06Ghz P4 purchased on release day running at well over 4ghz, happy days, still don't miss the dielectric grease, horrible stuff.
 
Abit KD7-S with my old Athlon XP2500. Used to use a gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro 2 which I gave away.
