Weeks after annoucing its high end ION ITX-F Mini-ITX board, Zotac has released two new value Mini-ITX motherboards.

The new ION Syergy Edition series Mini-ITX boards feature a PCIe x1 slot with either a single-core 1.6 GHz Atom 230 CPU (ION ITX-E) or dual-core 1.6GHz Atom 330 CPU (ION ITX-G).

Other features include NVIDIA ION integrated graphics, 4 SATA ports, HDMI and DVI output.

Compared to the other Zotac ION boards, these lose the 5.1 HD output via S/PDIF connectors (7.1 still possible via HDMI), and the eSATA port available on the other boards is replaced by a fourth SATA connector.

ION ITX Synergy Edition specifications:

• CPU: Intel Atom 230 (1.6GHz single core - ION ITX-E) / Intel Atom 330 CPU (1.6GHz dual core - ION ITX-G)
• Chipset: NVIDIA ION
• RAM: 2 x 240pin DIMM slots, up to 4 GB of DDR2 667/800 RAM 
• Storage: 4 x SATA ports
• Expansion slots: 1 x PCIe x1, 1 x Mini PCIe slot
• Display: NVIDIA ION Integrated Graphics, 1 x VGA output, 1 x DVI output, 1 x HDMI output
• Audio:  HD Audio (line in, line out, mic in)
• LAN: 1 x Gigabit Ethernet
• I/O: 10 x USB 2.0 (6 x external, 4 x
  
  internal), PS/2 port
