I have a feeling if you ever loaded that gpu it would overheat with a lack of any airflow in the case get a case fan and undervolt the :banana::banana::banana::banana: outta it

I've had one for ~1 yr now, it's very quiet, runs cool, cheap and has a decent amount of room... ;)
Mine's been totally reliable. Those SSD's are a nice touch, but where you gonna put your media (unless you wanna stream it all).
Just thought I'd throw it out there... :p:
found a thing that looks cool..

I think is to much. $120 is more reasonable. Board looks cool tho.
If they dropped board a bit this board would kill it as a HTPC, bluetooth,WIFI, 2x pcie, 18Wtdp and looks like it has some great chipset cooling!
the problem is that it is for enterprise, not consumers, hence quite expensive..Quote:

case as heatsink, yeah! great idea.. love the compact size :shocked:
put things as external 3,5e hdd, bluray, etc. on the case and connect with e-sata, usb :up: like as lego module
i didnt see a price for it at all, and the article just says price not publishedQuote:

since it is customized unit for enterprise, they could charge double or triple price :p:
lets hope it is cheap enough.. who knows
I'm waiting on these boards to arrive myself...
Want to put a demo and HTPC build together within this case:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811121114 $60
Running Ubuntu (free)
E-350 motherboard (hopefully less than $150)
250GB WD AV Drive $35
Slim DVD Burner $25
4GB DDR3-1066 $35
Projected price being $325 Ubuntu, $460 with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit installed
Nice beepbeep, would be even cheaper with 2gb ram :O ...im still waiting for llano for a htpc though..Quote:

Say I were to personally build 120-240 of these (should be simple enough considering the PSU setup), making only $35 on each build I'd net a near instand 4 to 8k profit...and thats huge for someone like me, anyway.
I'd just have to put ram on board, put board in case, add HDD and disk drive, connect via SATA, connect PSU, close case...slap geniune Windows sticker on side and install/test the box, install windows, run through memtest, maybe 10 passes LinX and a minute of furmark and that machine is done. ...heck I could teach a 10 year old to do that.
definately, 1gb/2gb is what i'd go..25w max? :D
They would be really nice efficient, compact full machines, wouldn't they?Quote:

If only my school district were not so retarded....:down: They bought I believe about 1000 HP T5710 Thin Clients back in '08...
TWO FREE USB PORTS...AND THEY DONT FUNCTION AT ALL :ROTF:
You get your little HP mouse, your HP keyboard, and your crappy 17 inch HP screen connects via VGA, with lots of lines and analog artifacts because either the thin client's signal is weak or your cable is trash.
lol i think the teachers "head of IT" really needs to tune into these forums, Its another ball game to them lol... Yeah i'd imagine them being a pretty hand computer, light on the sources and is good enough for browsing the web, Definately better then a Intel P4 :D
Pix in the AM.
Laser cutting required.
I'd really like to see some pics of this little beauty Simon.
Any clue when these Zacate boards will be available for us mear mortals... ;)
February buddy ;)Quote:
