JetWay J9F2-KHDE Review
Pros:
1080p and 1080i resolution
compact, small size
the whole system is pretty quiet
Cons:
need to use some free 3rd party tool to make HDMI out working
JetWay J9F2-KHDE is a real good choice for mini-itx htpc. You can play 1080p or 1080i video in this little pc. The DVI and HDMI output give you more choices for monitor connection. The dual lan is also a good feature. Some people even put this pc into their car as a car pc. So if you are looking for a multi purpose mini-itx pc, including htpc, internet surfing......this board might be a godo choice for you. But if you want to use this pc as fundamental use, such as file server or home server only, there are some other motherboard with lower power consumption which surve your purpose. As for game playing pc, I think this board is not suitable for playing some powerful game, since it can't add display card anyway.
