The VIA EPIA-M910 Mini-ITX board baost the best performance per watt on the market today. Shown here with the VIA QuadCore E-Series processor graphic.
Mark recieved this safety depsoit case with his special edition GTA IV game which was just the perfect size to fit a Mini-ITX board in.
Here's the finished result.
I dislike blindingly-bright blue LEDs, so I took a black permanent marker and darkened the LED a bit.
I added a jumper wire because I damaged one of the supply trace to the LED when I was desoldering the 6 pin header, which was unnecessary for this modification.
This is my second mini-ITX build. This computer is adequate for:
- Home theater PC
- Office work
- Light gaming
- Downloading :)
With Windows 7 Ultimate installed, the power up time is ~30 seconds.

I chose this CPU because I think it has the best balance of computing power (2 cores, 4 threads), consuming power (with a TDP of just 35W) and price.
CPU cooler SCYTHE Kozuti

The CPU's stock cooler didn't work properly, so I had to buy this one. It's more powerful, more quiet and more reliable than Intel's.

This was the smaller case I could find with enough space for CPU+cooler and a decent PSU. I could install one 5.4" drive, one 3.5" hard disc and two 2.5" hard discs if I wanted to :D I chose to install just the 2.5" HDs, the optical drive isn't necessary anymore (one can install everything from a single USB flash drive!), and since this isn't being used as a HTPC for now, a big capacity 3.5" HD wasn't needed either.

Technical description:
Official website:
I used one of the original drawer backs as a mount for the PSU and air baffle to try to keep all front-to-back airflow. Being at the top meant I'd always have one fan in the hottest part of the cabinet and it'd also cool the ethernet switch. Unfortunately it meant snipping a hole in my beloved door.
WIth a 250W power supply. This was my Hackintosh. It's now been transplanted to a roomier case.

Inspired by Russ Caslis' famous Millennium Falcon, Sean found this mini version on-line and decided to see if he could fit a VIA EPIA 5000 board inside.
Fettes Mini-ITX Komplettsystem im Silverstone SG05 mit ZOTAC 9300 Mini-ITX Board und ZOTAC Geforce GTS 250 AMP! Grafikkarte. Als Prozessor kommt ein Intel Core2Quad Q9550 zum Einsatz... 8)
Der blau beleuchtete Frontkühler im SG05 (nur zu Showzwecken eingesetzt) ist das Sahnehäubchen des Systems. :)
With its wireless connectivity, the VESPA-PUTER functions as a GPS navigational system as well as provide access to the internet to locate the nearest gas station or hotel wherever Luca happens to be.
This is Michael Fox, Senior Marketing Specialist at VIA, and the Android on x86 demo. Also featuered was the Smart ETK which allowed for touch screen control of peripheral devices.
Inspired by the Summertime 'bling rims' prevelant in his home country Sweden, Micke creted his EPIA Alloy Mods with a rel world brake disc.

The VIA EPIA-M900 Mini-ITX board with the VAI QuadCore E-Series processor is ideal for next-generation multi-display digital signage. Shown here from an angle with the VIA QuadCore E-Series processor.
Luca constructed his VESPA-PUTER using a VIA EPIA MII 12000 Mini-ITX, an 8" touch screen monitor and a USB web cam mountied on the handle bar of his Vespa scooter.
In December 2009, VIA launched the VIA EPIA-M800 Mini-ITX board. It was the first Mini-ITX board to feature the VIA Nano CPU.
Anthony Winn was commisioned by VIA to create his Project Jelly Bean mod for Computex 2002. This was one of the first mods out there.
Russ' painstaking attention to detail made his mod truly stand out. He used a VIA EPIA 5000 Mini-ITX board as the systems engine.
This is an image of the VB8004 featuring the 1.6GHz dual core VIA Nano X2 E-series CPU. Offering even more scalability for advanced digital signage systems. Shown here from the top.
Jeffrey used a VIA VB8001 Mini-ITX board and a Silvertone LC06 LaScala aluminum case for the innards of this mod.
Das Prodigy (weiß) ist breiter und höher als das Aerocool QS200 Lite, obwohl in das Aerocool ein größeres Mainbaord und mehr Laufwerke passen. - Einzig im Bereich "Platz für Festplatten" hat das Bitfenix die Nase vorn.
