    AOpen mITX 9400 LGA775 motherboard

    Same question here. I really couldn't understand why AOpen could possibly be asking for $230, while the $140 Zotac has already been on the market offering every feature on AOpen's list. Is AOpen crazy or just plain stupid?

    AOpen mITX 9400 LGA775 motherboard

    Wow, $230! The AOpen is almost $100 more than the Zotac which is $140. I absolutely failed to see what the extra $100 buys for you other than the slightly faster 9400 GPU. Compared to Zotac, the AOpen is so obviously a big rip-off.

    ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi

    you do can undervolt the CPU by either 0.05v or 0.1v in BIOS with G-E. I have done that on two G-E boards, both were working fine. Of course, it would be really nice that Zotac could provide a BIOS in the future to enable more undervolts.

    ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi

    Have you tried to put in a 100mm x 12mm slim fan in M350? like this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185071&cm_re=100mm_fan_siim-_-35-185-071-_-Product I'm assembling a Zotac 9300 in M350 and it looks to me that it has enough clearance for a 12mm thick fan on top...

    Best mini-ITX with an integrated PSU and 1x5.25" bay?

    That's a cubic case, but somehow I'm more into the form factor of MI-008. For some reason the size and shape of MI-008 just look perfect to me for being a everyday office case... I know, we're talking about that the beauty is in the eyes of beholder.. :D

    ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi

    I can confirm that drivers for G-E and D-E are the same. I downloaded the latest driver from Zotac website and all of them are fine for my G-E install. I know nothing about the fan header though.

    Best mini-ITX with an integrated PSU and 1x5.25" bay?

    As far as I can see, Thermaltake Element Q is pretty much identical to MI-008? http://www.thermaltake.com/product_gallery.aspx?PARENT_CID=C_00001513&id=C_00001515&name=Element+Q&ov=&ovid=&parent_cp= The Q seems to be a beautified MI-008. The Morex 668B is nice, but too big for my purpose...

    Best mini-ITX with an integrated PSU and 1x5.25" bay?

    Indeed, I was looking to this one too. I browsed through all the ITX cases in the Newegg, and I searched the web quite extensively. This case comes up as the closest thing I'd like. Another one came close is the Cooler Master Elite 100...

    Best mini-ITX with an integrated PSU and 1x5.25" bay?

    OK, I have used several mini-ITX cases with pico-PSUs: M350, Morex T3500, Antec ISK-300. They're all pretty good, but all require an external PSU. Recently I build a Zotac gf9300 in an Apex MI-008 case. Although I'm very happy with MI-008's size, looking, and the external bays (1x5.25 plus...

    Thanks for the heads up! I just ordered one 9300-G-E from the egg. This day finally comes!...:D

    ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi

    It could be the heat. My 9300 in ISK300 often fails to boot immediately after the system freeze. If I then keep repeating the power cycle or reset it never boots. The power light comes on but the screen stays black. But if I let it sit for a few minutes to cool down then it will always boot no...

    ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi

    Ok, the problem is now solved. It's not Zotac 9300's fault. It's the windows XP. I followed this page: http://fivepercent.us/2008/08/15/windows-xp-standby-and-hibernate-problem-update-82008/ and got the dumppo.exe from this URL...

    ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi

    No I haven't yet. I have Win7 RTM and I love it on my home PCs. This 9300 is my office PC so I'm waiting for the school to provide the official Win7. The thing is as far as I can understand, it should be the motherboard's job to take care of the S3 or S1 standby. Since all the motherboards I...

    ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi

    I just discovered a problem with 9300's standby mode. I enabled S3 standby in BIOS, but after I put the Windows XP to standby the fans keep running. On all my other computers (windows XP too) fans would shut down upon S3 standby. Why 9300 doesn't do this? It really bugs me b/c I now use S3...

    help: new AC-DC adaptor won't boot Windows.

    Thanks for the reply! Well Carl at short-circuit was nice to promptly offer a replacement. He didn't even ask me to send this one back. You're right. The new adapter could be undervolted under heavy load, if it is only 12.3V without load. As to running the quad, it's really fine. The max...
