I am running the NF7, which is the exact same board withouth the SATA connections, and I think it is a great board.

XP2800+, Abit NF7, 1GB Dual-Channel DDR333, ATI R9800PRO 128MB, SB Live! 5.1 Digital, TT PurePower 420W, Samsung 120GB, Maxtor 120GB, LG DVD+-R/RW, WIN2K PRO SP4

Total gain will be in the neibourhood of 15%. You should be able to get to 2.4@ 200+fsb. The NF7-S is almost $100. Is it worth it to you? I did it for fun, and because I could sell my old mobo, but it really isn't a great upgrade.

Your board also lacks nForce APU.
