I just wanted to start a thread on this motherboard. Does anyone have any information on this board that they want to share (reviews, availability in North America, etc)?

I think this would be a great mini-ITX htpc solution. Similar to some of the stuff that Albatron offers, but Albatron's newest intel based ITX uses mobile CPUs.

What do you guys think?

iBase North America (Board not listed there, yet):

I will agree with you there, widefault. Thanks for the heads up.

The dual gigabit would be a big sell for me. And it looks like it might be easier to get in North America.
 
Are these boards usually in the $400 - $500 range ?

I could live with 2 sata ports on my next build being that 500GB drives are under $100 now.
 
Yeah, paying upwards of $500 would not be out of the norm for a board like this.

I'm hoping Intel starts making boards like this sometime soon and undercuts the competition, like they seem to be doing to VIA with the D201GLY and D201GLY2.

I like to talk about these type of motherboards so the manufacturers can know that we are interested in products like these and that there is a market. Then, hopefully, there will be more competition giving better prices and products.

Let's hope that they read this forum. ;)
 
$390ish for the Commell on pre-order. If I didn't already have two "spare" mini-ITX boards and two other mini-ITX projects in the works, I'd consider one of these to replace my desktop system.
 
holyshit that thing is SMALL. man i want that..

i just built a picoBTX PC with C2D and 7600GT with this mobo. was 110$ so quite abit cheaper but not as small hehe. I love the system.. inside a tiny tiny picoBTX case.
 
crazy perhaps dumb question, but do any of these overclock? :D i like the idea of getting a nifty core2 processor and overclocking the crap out of it on a mini itx board. sends shivers up my spine thinking bout it. imagining 15,000+ 3dmark points. lol or 35fps on crysis dx10 with everything maxxed out. ;p yah... yeesh... ideas goin crazy.
 
I am working on getting one of the MI935 Boards, I will let you know how things go... depending on how it works out... I might buy that Commell pre-production model though...

Anyone know about buying pre-production models? how about bugs/glitches/errors and how common are they?
