Looking to build the perfect tiny HTPC? Then there's no better basis than this ZOTAC Z68-ITX WiFi Supreme motherboard. With its incredibly compact Mini-ITX form factor, it fits into the smallest and most stylish cases. Does that mean you have to sacrifice any performance? No, it does not! This little guy packs a punch like you would not believe, based as it is on the Intel Z68 high-end chipset and the Nvidia GeForce GT 430 discrete graphics processor for boosted 3D performance.
You want this, you know you do.
With its mSATA expansion slot, you can use the smallest SSDs on the market while using a larger drive for expanded storage capabilities. More expansion is available in the shape of a PCI Express x4 slot. You could use that to add an extra RAID controller and turn your ZOTAC-based HTPC into a storage powerhouse with enough space to record digital TV well into the next decade.
Connectivity options are a-plenty too, starting off with integrated WiFi - compliant with the latest 802.11n standard of course. Then there's two (2!) DVI ports, HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA, USB 3.0 (four of those), four SATA connectors, eSATA, 7.1 audio outputs... you name it, this board's got it.
So, of course you want one. What do you have to do to have a chance of winning the one ZOTAC gave us to give away to you?
