  • Pretty good for Linux

    My main reason for using these (I have four) is the low power consumption as the power company where I live will punish you for using x amount of of power in excess. Despite being release around 2009, these are really great for using for Linux servers where there will not be a heavy load on it. I also have one running Windows 10 Enterprise on it. Yes, even a touch screen attached. It does seem to struggle a little bit, but still very responsive. However, with the coming update for Windows 10 at the end of 2017, looks like I will have to swap out with a newer motherboard, One drawback, is all these Intel made motherboard (they did make a few models, but stopped making Atom MicroATX desktop boards) are very sensitive to the memory you put in them. They need Low Density high quality memory modules. Probably best to use Crucial, as I have had limited success with other brands, though Kingston should work.

  • Perfect for an OpenWRT x86 router

    Using this as a OpenWRT x86 Router, it's extremely fast for this use and 2gb of used DDR3 RAM is cheap to get and works well with this board. I'm using a PCIe mini to full card Adapter / Riser for the Dual Gigabit NIC, it was necessary to solder a link between Pins 7 and 9 to get the PCIe NIC card working, as this board apparently was made with WiFi cards, ones that already have this link, in mind. there is a full guide on pridopia 's FAQ. I used masking tape instead of kapton tape as that's what I had and it worked out okay, and I also did the solder joint on the pins of the mini side of the card adapter, as that part can be purchased cheaply if I failed, But even with my less than 10 hours of experience with soldering I was able to get it done right on the first try. All in all it's an extremely fast CPU for a Router (with 2 GB of RAM!) and I only paid ~$70 USD for everything, that includes a used PC from Goodwill just for the case and a New 400w EVGA PSU that was on sale. OpenWRT makes using my old Routers a Wifi APs easy. (Honestly, that guide goes to too much trouble; I masked off everything nearby the gold contact pads of pins 7 and 9 with tape, including the bottom 2 thirds of the 7 & 9 pads so the solder will only flow onto the top 1/3. I applied flux to the pads and the space in-between them, then flowed solder onto them. the flux let the solder flow from one gold contact to the other over the PCB easily and I ended up with a small bit of solder linking the two pads, much better compared to that glob of solder in the picture on that guide.)

  • Silent mITX board that's great for projects.

    Excellent condition, includes the rear back shield too. And older board, but well featured to customize for numerous uses. There is enough cpu power to do most web and media duty, while the PCI and mini PCIe slots offering flexibility. Others have installed 8 GB of RAM! An eUSB port allows flash DOMs too! Plan to use mine for a pfSense router project. Added a dual NIC to the PCI and deciding whether to go mSATA SSD, or Wifi. I tested the eUSB boot and it works great. Hard to beat for the price, and good value mITX embedded system kit.

  • Great for nextcloud

    I bought this to replace a raspberry pi 3 that jdidnt have enough juice to do my home network server needs. I'm running ubuntu 16.04 on this with 4gb ram and software raid 1 on two 1 terabyte drives. It's running nextcloud on apache and MySQL and using redis for caching and it's working great. I all have it running pi.hole as a network wide anti-ad dns.

  • Awesome Low Power Board

    I'm using this in a home Debian Linux server, and it's working perfectly. Zero problems and plenty of power for a lightweight Linux setup. Also, I was able to get 8GB of RAM working on this (don't plan on it since the documentation from intel says it only supports 4GB, but if you have the RAM lying around then give it a try).

  • The Intel D525MW Is an outstanding low power option.

    Quit wasting energy on Intel Socket 775 Pentium D dual core processors. These Intel Atom boards perform better, while consuming a fraction of the energy. I'm using these for small Windows 2008 servers for some projects and it's quick, responsive, and they get the job done. The only thing I would say, is that if there's a deal on the J1900 or similar Celeron boards, you'll get a little more bang for your buck with those. If you want to spend a lot more, get a Supermicro Atom board with IPMI.

  • Nice Compact Micro-ITX Motherboard

    I have purchased 5 of these tiny motherboards in the past year, as replacements for aging or failed ATX motherboards. This tiny micro ITX motherboard measures 6x6 inches and installs easily even in the smallest PC case. I am currently running Windows 10 Professional Edition, 64 bit, on all 5 of the ones I've purchased. The maximum ram is 4GB. Since the item does not have a cooling fan, but metal fins instead, I installed power supplies with dual fans and an additional PC case fan to help circulate the air better. The item only has 1 PCI slot. I have used both 4 port SATA cards and combination SATA/IDE cards to increase the number of drives I can add. Very happy with my purchases. Intend to purchase more as some of my older machines wear out.

  • Awesome Little Board

    Awesome little board for the price. No moving parts is a plus. Pre-tested as a firewall, so far I'm impressed...

  • Defective Motherboard

    Purchased this hoping to get a good itx system up and running with mSATA and laptop ram sounded like a great idea but the board was DOA.
