First Look VIA PX10000 Pico-ITX Motherboard
Unless you are a big fan of small form-factor computing, you probably haven’t been tracking the development of VIA’s Pico-ITX motherboards. This form-factor was announced at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show, but it has been almost impossible to get your hands on a motherboard and the official U.S. release has yet to happen. A few samples have made their way to reviewers and developers, but because of their rarity coverage has been sparse.
If you are not familiar with Pico-ITX, all you have to know is it is a newer and smaller motherboard size than what we have seen before. A full-sized ATX motherboard is 12″ x 9.6″ (305mm x 244mm) and Mini-ITX is 17cm x 17xcm, which makes it much smaller than the average system. Nano-ITX, which was announced in March 2004, but is mainly used for industrial and business systems, is 12cm x 12cm. Pico-ITX has cut the size down once again, and measures in at an incredible 10cm x 7.2cm, but has retained almost all of the features and functionality of the larger platforms.
