Via Launches New Line of Mini-ITX Boards

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the smaller-is-better dept.

An anonymous reader writes "LinuxDevices has the skinny on Via's next-generation Epia EN mini-ITX boards, which feature its relatively new C7 processors based on the Esther C5J core. The boards will be able to run passively cooled at 1.2GHz, and will clock up to 2GHz, with 800MHz FSBs." From the article: "They target thin clients, car PCs, robotics, medical equipment, kiosks, and server appliances."

  1. No hardware MPEG4 decoding by TummyX · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Damn. The SP line of ITX boards used the CN400 chipset which supported MPEG4 decoding (in linux at least). Looks like the CN700 will only do MPEG2 which is great for DVDs but not so good for DIVX/XVID.
