So you think that we should have given it a perfect review even though we have had problems with it? I assure you it was not the lack of hardware experience that was the problem.

The review didn't give a bad rating to the board as you can see here:

Ok so what have we learned so far? By today's standards, the BF6 falls somewhat short compared to what's out there now. However, it is still a great motherboard for regular user and overclockers alike despite being almost a year old. It has solid performance. No complaints in that department. Stability is also good. The potential to overclock is there and with SoftMenu III, it's as easy as point and click. Abit really put a lot into the design and features of this motherboard. However, with the motherboards out there now and new ones coming out soon, it might not be the best to get if you're looking for serious speed and future expansion, but I'm happy with it. Overall I give it a 8/10.

Rating: 8/10 SystemLogistics


But if you look at the date that the review was done, in almost November of 2000, over a year past its release date. This means by that time there were many other motherboards out there.

If you can explain more of how you thought this review was a joke I would appreciate it, as your main post so far was that it is one of the most overclockable motherwoards, which we stated:
