Just wondering if the Ampie car computer case will be compatible with the EPIA-M10000 as it has the fan on the mainboard, i know the EPIA MII12000 is compatible because it doesnt have a fan on board.

i have a MII12000 and it has a fan on board, i use this with an ampie case.......

i managed to pick up the via epia m10000 board for under $50 aud on ebay.

not sure if its faulty or not but seems ok so far...

do you think this board plus 512mb of ram will be powerfull enough to run centrafuse frontend standard version. no bluetooth connection or gps....


cheers,

will work but why put 512 when you will have to upgrade it to 1gig in the future? i'll just go with 1gig.

i was told not to go for 1gb as it would take twice as long to return from hibernation. is this incorrect?

from my experience.. 1gb does make your resume times longer.. but only by a few seconds.. is DEFINITELY not twice as long as 512mb

a faster hard drive helps a lot in this case
