Abit was pretty good to me in the past - I had 2 Abit IT5H's (socket 7) run for at least 5 years straight - slightly OC'd too, I had 2 Abit KT7 Raids (socket A, 1 sold and still running, mine just died this summer) for what about 5 years as well, the BX with a p2400 I donated and believe is still running, my desktop has been all manner of abit,msi and finally the asus a7n8xdeluxe which seems to be holding strong. I haven't bought Intel cpu or mobo since the socket 7 days and don't miss them much at all. I've never had an AMD cpu fail before I was done with it - though I'm not counting the dumbass overclocking attempts :)
