Fanless Nano-ITX Motherboard Reviewed

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the small-and-quiet-isn't-a-bad-way-to-start dept.

TheEagleCD writes "The first look at the fanless EPIA-N8000E Nano-ITX motherboard has just hit the internet. While some skeptics commented that this board is only 'for those who like VIA or want an even smaller footprint than a nano-notebook,' others say that 'the size, heat output and noise levels alone will recommend it to many projects.' It will be interesting to see how the market really receives this first Nano-ITX motherboard which is the de-facto successor of the Mini-ITX form-factor which made a strong statement by being seen on many company booths at this year's CeBIT."

    I've always wanted to run Linux on my coffee mug. And I can use the heat from the CPU to keep the coffee warm.

      even better, you could write a script that regulates the load on the processor to keep your drink at a given temperature!
