At some point in the next month or two I am thinking of modding my old Shuttle SN41G2 with a mini ITX motherboard. It currently has a flexATX nForce 2 motherboard with an XP2800 in it.
The computer will be used for mostly internet,word processing,light image editing and watching video on.
I already have DDR2 DIMMs to hand and a suitable hard disk and optical drive.
Will the Ion motherboards with an Atom 330 be much better??
If not what Intel or AMD based motherboards would you suggest??
A PCI-Express slot would be useful but even a PCI slot would do the job
TBH however I am not really up to speed with mini ITX motherboards ATM.
I don't have a big budget but if a motherboard,CPU and a new PSU could be had for under £150 it would be great. If I could re-use my Shuttle PC40 it would be great:
