    My Little Zacate System.

    Specs:
    Antec ISK-300-65
    Asrock E350M1
    4GB Kingston 1066 DDR3
    500GB WD Scorpio Blue

    I have to say, this is one quick little system. I am running Linux Mint 10 on it and it makes a pretty nice media center/server currently. For only $300 it's really nice for the cost imo.

    How is linux treating the GPU? Have AMD released updated drivers for the fusion for linux then?
    Also does hardware acceleration work?

    All important points, want XBMC on a machine such as that

    Nope, barely hits 45c under load with lowest fan speeds.

    Thats pretty sweet. Has anyone tried XMBC on any of these setups, if so how does it run. Any driver issues or anything.

    I'm also intruiged in these little machines from a gaming point of view. I've found myself recently playing tonnes of games like Geometry Wars, Shank, Trine and Alien Breed 2. These games don't really require a huge amount of graphical grunt so if one of these systems were capable of playing these games in 720p I'd be all for getting one to plug striaght into my tv.

    It would be quite nice to see a review somewhere that explores the gaming capabilities of such a set up. If anyone knows of one anywhere please let me know.

    Seems as if the GPU is working good. The CPU was only at about 60% load during the benchmark. I wish I could run it in directx lol.

    Does this thing have a drive slot or is the shiny plate on the front just decorative? I'm curious how well it could play a blu-ray/ dvd

    Anyone have an idea of how fast the GPU in Zacate is relative to Intel X3100? Looking to replace my X61 this summer and the Zacate is definately interesting (might wait for Llano though).

    That sure is a sweet little rig man!

    What are you using for a PSU?
    I would assume it's some kind of external power brick...

    Yeah, it's just a 65watt brick. The thing only hits ~20watts from the wall under full load.
