Zotac Readies nForce 610i ITX
And just when you thought the AMD 780G based ITX solution by J&W Technology slated for next week was one of a kind, (covered here), there already is competition for it, this time from the opposite front. Zotac has innovated an Intel + NVIDIA ITX board based on the nForce 610i chipset called Zotac nForce 610i ITX. This LGA 775 board comes features a single chip core-logic, supports the latest Intel processors including FSB 1333 MHz, the 45nm Wolfdale chip is supported, older quad-core chips are as well. Unlike the 780G ITX solution this features two full-size (240-pin) DDR2 slots, two SATA II ports and an IDE port. A single PCI-E x1 slot is present. The board in the picture only has one D-Sub display output driven by the GeForce 7050 IGP, and a 6-channel audio. This board isn't as feature-rich as the AMD 780G solution, but it's a nifty solution for internet shacks and cybercafe use. With even a cheap Pentium Dual Core E2000 series processor, it provides sufficient power for everyday tasks.

780G sounds like a much better board

Zotac rocks.. My friend has a Zotac 780i and 9800GTX. They offer lifetime warranties on everything too I think.

What I like about this board compared to the 780G, is it use's full size DIMM's and supports LGA775. Would like it more if they included a PCI-e x16 slot, gives user more choices for expansion.

the 780G motherboard has much better specs IMO.a pci-e is crucial if you are thinking of gaming or even if you want a decent HTPC IMO always

610i is no match whatsoever compared to the 780G. The 610i even though it can use full side DIMMs, it can't really use anything high-end due to the age of the chipset. 780G, on the otherhand should be able to use better notebook DIMMS.
However the 780G; I'd ONLY put at the most a 4850e in it considering how compact the power phases are. This Zotac could take a Q6600 without any issues. I'd be questioning what you'd do with a good CPU good RAM and a crippling IGP though ![]() If zotac used notebook DIMMs instead of the full sized DIMM slots, then I would think that the PCI-E 16x would be a possible option. Oh well. HD Playback.... well in terms of IGP 780G just.... mows the 610i. Gaming, 780G can at least play HL2 a bit faster than my old 9550.

no. you cant get video acceleration on files, only from DVD/HD/BD media.
the onboard video here only has VGA output which means no HDCP, so the legit disks would look like crap anyway. this is NOT a media board.

Well this might just happen to be a cheap upgrade for my file / print server lol.
Not every small computer has to be a media box ....I just wish these new ITX's had an AC out instead of having to use a normal PSU. (or DC-DC converter)

http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/ ^ if you go there and look under cases->mini ITX, several cases come with 50-90W PSU bricks.

I would much rather just get a laptop power block and plug it into the back of the PC (like my current server ). The AC adapter (actualy a 60W LCD one) powers the system beautifully, and it costed $20 on ebay. Plus being a home built case, I could make the case really small (as the PSU is external to the case, like laptops).
