Inno3D Preps iChiLL mini-ITX ION Motherboard
Inno3D's iChiLL range is going to have one more product to talk about soon, this will be an upcoming NVIDIA ION-based mini-ITX mainboard with a name that's yet to be discovered. The board was shown for the first time during this year's COMPUTEX. It follows NVIDIA's reference design and is expected to ship in two flavours - one featuring an integrated single-core Intel Atom N270 processor, and another sporting an integrated dual-core Intel Atom 330. The second heart of the board is NVIDIA's ION chipset which brings with it a GeForce 9400m integrated graphics, with a GPU clocked at 450 MHz and 16 stream processors clocked at 1100 MHz. The iChiLL board provides two DDR2 DIMM slots, supporting up to 8 GB of 667 MHz/800 MHz memory, and is bundled with a 90W external power supply. The board is yet to be priced.

They need to do something. Higher FSB, higher clocks. The 230 has improved to 270 now 280. Time to improve the 330 a little. Or a "quad-core" Atom 430. That would crunch through FTP/NAS mini-server tasks at least, and take the Atom well beyond P4 performance.
This just one improvement would make these boards so much better.
