Intel Atom 230 Super Mini ITX PC
I’ve been planning to get a PC intended for home server usage. Usually I would built a PC myself but considering that I don’t have the time and Intel Atom processor is not available to consumer market yet, the only way is buy one. So I was browsing Lowyat.net forum, I found out that one of the forum member, Mika offered an Intel Atom 230 Super Mini ITX PC package for only MYR 750 and it doesn’t took long for me to place an order. What’s really interest me about this processor is that it consume small amount of power. You can read the processor review here.
The specs:
- CPU: Intel Atom 230 1.6GHz
- Mainboard: Intel D945GCLF
- RAM: 1.0GB DDR2-667

While the specs are just average, it is good enough to work as a home server. I can’t show the pictures as the PC is not here yet. It might take at least two days to arrived at my home. Here’s a review from one of the buyer, in case you’re wondering how it performs.
