Thread: Zotac + ION = Nice MB ;)

Nice board. I think the company i work for is going to be using one of these boards for a project. I should be getting some to play with by the end of july. I think they are going to be the 19v dc models though

I just want to see how well they play back HD Video, grab a slim line blueray player make a HDCP free blue ray player

I know mini-itx.com has a review of the ion but offhand I don't know about any carpc porojects with the ion. I'm using a Zotac board in my build, but not the ion.

@jpinkerton
I believe I've read 3 or 4 reviews about the Zotac Ion board and they all focus on the HTPC potential of the board. I'm hoping an mp3Car forum member does his/her own review so we have that mp3car slant on the review (ie, multitasking with music & GPS, internet, satellite radio, boot times, hibernation, etc).

I'm sure one is coming because this board has received a lot of attention on this forum and tech news. I'm just being impatient because I want to replace my MII10000 fast.

I have the Ion platform and I would be glad to give you guys the rundown on it. I will post some details shortly. I will be comparing it to the Intel D201gly board that was in my last build.

fixer are you putting it in the Scion or the Canyon?

In the Canyon. The Scion is the wife's ride now so I left her PC untouched.

Sounds great. I assume you'll post your review in the "Review" sub-forum? I want to know so I can keep a look out for it.
