Nice, esp the latter one with 6 SATA and everything onboard inc CPU. Mini server here we come

CPU >> Atom
6 SATA >> Any Atom board
TDP 15w vs 13w D525 Atom
VGA >>> Any Atom (ex Ion)

Its about time! Finally some AM3 ITX boards, full size DIMMS too

Nice to see a bit more variety.

On a side note I thought Zotac were green through and through....

would be very interested in power draw figures for the mobile-cpu based board.

With 6x Sata, this may finally be the board to make into that NAS/file server box I've been planning for so long, and with hopefully just enough grunt to double up as a secondary HTPC box for the kitchen for SD material

For all the folding fanatics out there a mITX board with a 95W Phenom II X6 would be quite a snag: you could definitely take a record for points per litre with that

Why on earth they didn't put a PCI-ex 16x slot on the 880G is quite beyond me. Otherwise, it'd make the perfect AMD-SFF board. For Intel there the Gigabyte H55N which I'm using right now (Silverstone Sugos ftw), but there's still no AMD equiv

I'll refrain from asking if it will play Crysis, and limit myself to dribbling a bit, and wondering what Windows 7 boot time would be with that processor (thinking of making a smaller HTPC as my current one is rather large).

Streaming DVD VIDEO_TS folders from a server over cat5e shouldn't be a problem for this baby, should it?

That about 720p mkvs?

Seems very similar to the Asus m4a88t-i, which has been out about 6 months.
These boards are great f you are looking at something small but powerful. The inbuilt graphics are perfect for casual gaming but are designed more for HD media playback. The inbuilt graphics also do Graphics card based parrallel processing, encoding etc.

I assume you meant the first board? Quite different in that this has Wifi and doesnt need SoDIMMs but yeah I guess....

Should do 1080p thanks to DXVA http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/gra...mance-review/7
