It looks like mini-ITX motherboards are still getting built, with Jetway being, this time, the company eager to reveal its latest creations powered by the Cedar Trail CPU platform.
If anyone thought the Atom series of CPUs (central processing units) from Intel was in dire straits, they may be somewhat wrong.
After all, there has been no shortage of mini-ITX motherboards released based on the Cedar Trail series of Atom units.
As it happens, one such pair of products has come to light, courtesy of Jetway, a company based in Taiwan.
What the company did was launch the NF9C-2600 and NF9D-2700 mini-ITX motherboards.
Both of them feature the NM10 Express chipset and use of the members of the N2000 Atom series.
To be more specific, the NF9D-2700, as the stronger of the duo, features an Atom D2700 chip, a dual-core unit with 4 threads, 1 MB L3 cache and a clock speed of 2.13 GHz.
Meanwhile, the NF9C-2600 lets buyers choose between an Atom N2600 (1.6 GHz) and an N2800 (1.83 GHz).
The former chip is a dual-core model with 4 threads and L2 cache memory of 1 MB, while the latter is similarly endowed, only with a frequency of 1.83 GHz.
Both motherboards have PCI slots (one each) and mini PCI Express (again, one each), plus a pair of DDR3 SO-DIMMM memory slots.
Furthermore, NF9C-2600 integrates a pair of SATA 6.0 Gbps ports, one SATA 3.0 Gbps port, Gigabit Ethernet and a Realtek ALC662 audio codec, plus three USB 2.0 ports and HDMI.
As for the NF9D-2700, it has two SATA 3.0 Gbps ports instead of just one, two SATA 6.0 Gbps connectors, dual Gigabit Ethernet, four USB 2.0 ports, D-sub and HDMI and a 5.1 channel VIA VT1705 HD Audio Codec.
Only the price of the NF9C-2600 bearing the N2600 is known: $150 (113.67 Euro).
