ASUS as one of the leader in the PC hardware world continues their lines of products with their latest excellent Asus E35M1-I Deluxe motherboard with AMD Brazos platform included for perfect HTPC (Home Theatre Personal Computer). Although it comes with a Mini-ITX form factor, it offers 5 SATA 6Gbps, 4 USB 3.0, external SATA (eSATA), Bluetooth, WiFi, and fi audio tour that is okay. Unfortunately, no FireWire and output D-Sub 15pin (must use adapter). That drives to produce excellence performance that helped them to secure an enviable reputation as one of the PC world’s top manufacturers. Even the HTPC market is in their sights with ASUS aiming squarely at the compact home cinema market with their brand new E35M1-I Deluxe. Using the ultra compact ITX form factor the board packs a truck load of current features like USB 3.0, SATA 6.0Gbps (courtesy of AMD’s Hudson M1 chipset) and AMD’s low power Zacate E350 dual core processor.
Another unique thing is the coolant used because it use completely silent passive cooling that suitable for HTPC. Asus also provides a number of distinctive features such as Asus TurboKey II (easy overclock) and Mem OK! (Could ease the problem of main memory). There
is also a slot of PCI-Express 2.0 x16 @ x4 (limitation of the AMD E-350). If there are easy to clear CMOS switch on the rear panel and the indicator of the POST (Power-On Self-Test), certainly would be more okay.
