For some time, I have been wanting to provide an up to date list of the Mini-ITX motherboards available on the market.
This post is the first of a series, starting with the comparison of the Mini-ITX motherboards with AM2/AM2+ socket.
There are currently 7 boards available:
- Albatron KI690-AM2
- Albatron KI780G
- J&W MINIX 780G-SP128MB
- Jetway NC81-LF (JNC81-LF)
- Jetway NC62K (JNC62K)
- Magic Pro MP-NC81
- Magic Pro MP-NC62K-LF
As some of the Mini-ITX motherboards share the same specifications (OEM versions under different names), I have grouped the boards in the table below to keep it simple.
