    Isn't that a bit like saying "Mini-ITX board supports USB3"? It doesn't really seem like a ground breaking and news worthy feature...

    Sorry.

    Just had a quick look through the list of LGA1155 mITX boards available at the site i buy from and all of them seem to support 16GB of memory.

    This board in general isn't really news worthy

    Maybe the price will be a news worthy feature but of course we don't know that yet.

  • I was going to say the same thing... Seems like an odd headline. There are existing mITX boards which support up to 16GB such as the EVGA Stinger (up to 16GB at 2133MHz).

    be a great thing to hve for lan parties. i remember the days when you had to drag out your atx cases to a lan party which was a pain in the ass, now these itx packages have gotten pretty advanced over the years to the point where they can do a lot of the same things that their much bigger cusions can do now where they have become a 'desktop to go' type of setup.

    Iron core chokes and SODIMM memory? Hmm, and no STANDARD front panel USB3.0 connector? Pass. Even the mSATA slot it appears to have doesn't redeem it.

    If it were a M-ITX board with support for like 4-8 Dimms/So-Dimms, I'd be impressed, but this is just like saying the new petrol
