  3. I was quite interested in the on-board audio – they advertise the THX TruStudio, but it’s stil just a RealTek chip. I was planning on a Home-Theater/mini gaming rig, but the power seems to be very limited on ITX boards, which could be a problem if I want to upgrade.

  4. Very in-depth review but would have been a lot more informative if the benchmarks were also directly compared against other mitx’s of the same chipset.
