There is a Problem with the ABIT AV8 and 90nm chips. The older bios's on these boards can't read the winchester cores. i was luckly and my cusion had the SAME board as me with a 130nm chip. so i just flashed to the 15 version of that bios.
when you do buy this board with a 90nm chip, make sure you get it with the newest bios on it. or you will be getting error code 9.0. and it screaming at you cause it think's it's overheating...
 
Thx for the heads up.. Most people would just rma the board, or cpu, or both. Get them back and have the same problem. Then get really pissed off.
