I noticed there's a weird mix of memory and PCI/PCI-E interfaces for Mini ITX, especially for AMD. I could go into specifics, but one look at Newegg.com would tell you better than I can. Has anyone heard of an AMD Mini ITX coming out with regular DDR2 1066 memory, and PCI-E 2.0 x16 like their Micro ATX boards? It already stings that AMD has poorer integrated graphics than Intel boards. I'm not interested in high wattage performance so much as not taking an unnecessary penalty for choosing Mini ITX over Micro ATX.

I found J&W Minix 780G-SP128M, but it runs hot and PCI-E x16 runs at x4. Is x4 a problem running the onboard graphics SLI with a PCI-E HD3470?

shouldn't be a problem, that isnt a very high end card, actually the integrated should be better than intel's solution (unless its using an nvidia chipset, then it would be on par)

but there aren't very many options when it comes to mini-itx, i was thinking about doing an htpc build with it then realized that i might want more than one tv tuner card
