Guys, I'm planning to buy Zotac ION mobo, but don't know which model should I pick. I want to use it as full HTPC, able to play HD blueray at full 1080p, dvd, divx, xvid, etc... Is there a huge advantage getting dual core 330 or should I go with single 230? Also, I wnat to get one with onboard PSU. Dual core with psu and wifi would be Zotac N330 IONITX-A-B. ANyone used it before? WOuld this mobo be ok to use with Windows 7?
Basically, the dualcore 330 handles flash/hulu/etc better. Otherwise the GPU takes most of the load anyway. I would take the 330 simply for the promise of more power
Hi Phinix, I had one of these IONITX-A-B with an on board PSU. No problems with Windows 7, but at the end of the day ATOM is an ATOM, and you can't expect much. I have sold it, and now I'm waiting for the new Zotac H55-ITX WiFi to combine with an I3 and a low profile gaphics card.
