Title: Re: New board Sam440ep-flex available
Post by: Firedawg on April 06, 2009, 05:17:36 PM: @Everblue

Yes, on both counts. The FlexATX is smaller than the full ATX, Mini, and the Micro, but the key is that they all share the ATX I/O shield size and placement, to include the mounting holes based on the board's size.

I hope that helps.

:roll: ....and you would use any more power for what?
Running the latest 3D games? Amiga based DVD authoring?
:lol:
Power and software step up side by side, in increments. Loads of hardware power now would be pointless without some software for it. Granted, the hardware needs to be available for the newer software but if a 3GHz CELL based Amiga turned up today by the time any software was written for it, it would seem slow anyway. Also, this is a niche market and hardware does not come cheap, try being a little more realistic and constructive rather than making silly comments please. Trolling is so boring.
