I dived in to the AMD processor genre with ABIT mobos, and cut my overclocking teeth on them. I have had great results with them and would recommend them to anyone wanting a quality mobo with good overclocking capabilities and stability.
i have an nf7 (a little dated now, i guess), but once i got it under control, its rock solid. the thing with abit's, is they take a little bit of time babying them so that you get all the settings just perfect, and then it rocks the house. some other manufacturers (like gigabyte) try to do a lot of stuff like that without requiring much input, but if you want complete control, go with an abit.
I too have had good experience with the abits. I've built up three systems with them and I probably fall under the category of somebody who doesn't need all the options (admittedly who doesn't even understand most of them) but they've been totally stable and very easy to set up. I've used the onboard RAID with all three boards with good results too.
those are my personal experiences with abit mobo's, and they have all been good. i guess i would still only suggest them to folks that feel pretty comfortable with all the mobo settings and stuff. i have used abits for a little while now, and i always seem to have a bit of a slow start (that AT7 was REAL finicky) with them in trying to get all the settings just so. but, i imagine i will prolly them forever
