It's been three years since we last exclusively reviewed a Mini-ITX motherboard. We examined the single-core Intel Atom 230-based Gigabyte GC230D in September 2008 and before that, it was the Socket 754-toting Albatron KI51PV-754 in October 2006. Needless to say, the market has changed substantially in that time. Hell, Albatron doesn't even sell motherboards anymore.The Mini-ITX form factor was developed by VIA in 2001 to promote its C3 processor, but technology has come a long way in the last decade. CPUs are smaller, cooler, and faster than ever before, and desktop chassis makers have embraced the ultra-compact market. Through such advancements, the Mini-ITX platform is no longer limited to anemic low-end solutions
