Abit and DFI tackle ATI's CrossFire Xpress 3200
@ 2006/07/06Looking back, the timeline of Abit's decline nearly matches the rise of DFI. For years, DFI was best known for OEM and industrial products, but recently it's built a series of exceptional enthusiast-oriented LANParty boards. Those boards have offered unique designs, plenty of BIOS options, and a penchant for running at higher-than-stock speeds that's made them particularly popular among overclockers.
With some calling DFI the new Abit, we thought it only fitting to pit these two companies' latest Athlon 64 motherboards against each other head to head. Can the LANParty UT CFX3200-DR continue DFI's streak of killer Athlon 64 mobos, or will Abit's AT8 32X rise like a Phoenix to retake the enthusiast motherboard crown? Read on to find out.

No, I'll just email them and request that they release news information while it's still news.
Maybe i'll ask them to post some tests of S754 boards just in case someone needs one of them too, after all there's never too much information, eh?
BTW relax, it's almost the weekend
I am relaxed, it's just that I don't agree with you on this being old and useless news, Tech Report probably covered something(s) you won't easily find in other reviews.
