=$55.99
Intel H61 chipset for desktop Sandy Bridge CPUs
4x SATA II
USB 3.0 (including front headers!)
mini ITX form factor
PCIe x16 slot
This looks pretty nice for a cheap HTPC. Pair it with a Celeron G530** for a nice $110 mobo/CPU combo.
**Celeron G530 is a dual core Sandy Bridge CPU like the Core i3, but at lower 2.4GHz, 2MB instead of 3MB cache, no QuickSync for the integrated graphics (similar 3D performance to HD 2000), no Turbo and no Hyperthreading.
