Abit Unveils AB-B760ITX Socket LGA1700 Motherboard

Abit unveiled the AB-B760ITX, a DIY retail segment Mini-ITX motherboard based on Intel Socket LGA1700, and B760 chipset. The board comes in two variants based on PCB color—black and white. It uses a conventional power input configuration of 24-pin ATX and 8-pin EPS, with a 10-phase VRM conditioning it for the processor. The LGA1700 processor is wired to two DDR4 memory slots for up to 64 GB of dual-channel DDR4-4000 memory; and an M.2 NVMe Gen 4 slot. The main PCIe interface is PCI_Express 5.0 x16. Connectivity includes 6-channel HD audio, Wi-Fi 6E + Bluetooth 5.2 WLAN, 2.5 GbE wired LAN, and four USB 3.2 ports. Display outputs include a pair of HDMI and one DisplayPort. Besides the M.2 slot, you get four SATA 6 Gbps ports. Abit is pricing these boards at RMB ¥599 (USD $84).

If it feels like you've seen a ghost, it's because Abit withdrew from the DIY PC component space around 2012, after fulfilling its support obligations for the last of its products shipped in 2008. Since then, the brand has been held by Universal Scientific Industrial, a mainland Chinese company that took it over from the original Taiwan-based Abit Computer.
