Thread: Core Duo / Core 2 Duo Mini-ITX boards

Are any of these even close to cheap lol, the Jetways are like $200+

binar - you would be best served to do that research on your own. No one here knows what the best features are for you because they are specific to YOUR needs.

That's no different than asking what the best car is...best car for who and for what? It all depends on how you're going to use it and what you value in features.

Imdbombboarder -

These are small form factor industrial boards. Tooling costs and manufacturing costs are considerably more expensive than full size boards. These boards are also not made in the same quantity as others so these costs aren't as spread out over volumes.

There is the Intel Little Valley board which you can find on the store for right under $70.00: http://store.mp3car.com/Intel_D201GL..._p/mtb-053.htm

Hey, yeah I can appreciate that, usually the smaller things are made the harder they are to make, meaning the more expensive they are. I'm just wanting to put on a dual core that I want to buy at a electronics store the day after thanksgiving(Black Friday Sales) so if I was able to buy a mini-itx that supports dual core and ddr2 that is not too spendy that would be amazing! That motherboard would work but I want to put on my own processor haha!

One thing I dont get, and I posted this before and I dont think they allowed me to post it but, their core 2 duo 1.66 ghz processor is selling on their site for $244.99: http://store.mp3car.com/Intel_Core_2..._p/cpu-007.htm

On sites like Newegg and Tiger Direct, they are selling for $75.00: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...?EdpNo=3241565

This a price gouge or am I missing somethin?

They includes me fwiw. I work for this company.

Posts made in the store forum are moderated. No one was preventing you from posting anything, it's a feature to cut back on spam.

Also, you really should think about turning on your instant notification of replies as there have been quite a few posts in response to your thread. No point in posting a complaint if you don't follow up on it to see how it turns out. If you don't follow up on it it just seems like you're posting to complain, not to solve anything.

Overpricing?

Does anyone know how to go about getting those newer liantec boards in the US? I have been holding out for it in the store but nothing new seems to be there in terms of C2D. the Liantec 6965N was the board I was looking for I wasn't sure how people were going about getting these non US made board in the US.

Crazy all this time I been looking at these forums and picking up information, just realized this was my first post...oh well....boooyah

Don't know why I didn't see this one before...
