The ABIT ZM6
ABIT

What you get:

Included in the ZM6 box is:

• The ZM6 motherboard
• A thick Users Manual
• 1 IDE cable
• 1 Floppy cable
• 1 drivers/software CD

As I stated in the BH6 review, I would have liked to see another IDE cable. But otherwise this is everything you could expect from a company such as Abit.

Included on the CD is among other things the Winbond Hardware Doctor software that monitors the condition of your computer through the Winbond W83977EF chip on the motherboard.

It monitors the CPU and system temperature through thermistors on the motherboard (one placed right under the CPU in the center of the Socket370 socket). It also monitors the different voltages of the computers power supply and the core voltage of the CPU. This is a very useful tool for providing you with information that could help you make your system more stable when overclocked (telling you if the CPU needs better cooling is a good example).
