    Anyone have an idea of how this board will perform? I'm concidering building a MicroATX 'puter but only if this board is worth it. Apparently there is some overclocking potentail unlike the Xpress200's. I always wanted a SFF case but they were all too expensive untill I looked on Newegg today and found a good one for like $85 or so. I know Jetway isn't exactly a frontrunner in the mobo business but I'd be willing to give it a try if you guys think it would be worth it. Thanks.

    I've always wanted a SFF computer too..looks pretty good. It's like a cross between case, and laptop so temps won't be the kindest.

    It's one of the better SFF boards for ocing but Jetway just doesn't have the past to back it up I guess. I'll put it in the back of my mind but Jetways site is crappy and therefore BIOS updates (Dual-core support) will be few and far between. I guess I don't want to risk buying such an essential part like that without a good site to help me with updates and tech support. Now if Gigabyte, ASUS, or Epox, etc. made it then I'd pretty much be sold. I've basically checked out all the "good" s939 PCIe mATX boards out there through this site: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=900405&page=1, the only ones that looked good for ocing have their faults so I probably won't take the SSF route unless a big name company makes a good ocing mATX board.
    Just for the heck of it here was the case I was looking at. It's the only SSF case I've ever seen with a clear side window and temp display.
