Computex, Taipei, Taiwan, 1 June 2004

Computex 2004, Taipei, Taiwan. Today we're bringing you more pictures of VIA's first CN400 motherboard, the EPIA SP, Commell's forthcoming LV-672 industrial Mini-ITX motherboard with PCI Express, and some interesting small form factor devices from Lex.

The EPIA SP8000 is the 800Mhz fanless Eden CPU variant of VIA's first CN400 Mini-ITX motherboard, due in around a couple of months. Here are a few pictures, showing the new heatsink design.

Lex were showing their full range, including two new cases, the Neo and the Twister - designed for their "Light" or Mini Flex ATX form factor (150 x 200mm, with 9 variants in their current range). Light can be considered a close cousin of Mini-ITX, most featuring VIA CLE266 chipsets and using C3 or Eden processors. The Neo cases measure 50 x 275 x 172mm, whereas Twisters measure 75 x 300 x 173mm, and support a PCI slot. We liked their SV823A board, designed for surveillance use - available with either 4 or 16 BNC video inputs, courtesy of the Conexant BT878A chipset.
