I would, and will at some point, use one of these in place of the SSD… to further compact things…

More than likely will be designed to attached to the wall of the cabinet and not in a case…
Thank you. Yes i looked at cases but none were slim/small enough. Look forward to your snaps to see how yours look set up. What power source did you use?

@Damian I am using a laptop power supply :)

thank you. i could not see a link to it in the first post so just wondered what one you chose. looking forward to your pictures of the setup of your itx when you get time

I just found this one: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/librecomputer/libre-computer-board-next-gen-4k-sbc-dev-board-for/description
It may be an alternative. :) -
@Snille Yes, very interesting. I liked the idea of comparing the boards with Geekbench. Maybe this is a measurable unit to compare.
@cowboysdude Are you willing to run such a Geekbench on your system?Somebody backed this and is going to get a one?
-
I think that’s awesome. IF it has more power, and it seems these boards are getting more powerful all the time, that’s a good thing!
-
@SvenSommer Yes, I’m backing it. :) I’m going (if it works) to replace my Pi3 with it. :)
-
@Snille I would but right now I have so much going on that backing anything else would be counter productive.
I’m backing a Thermostat right now… and that’s keeping my butt busy :)

hello. I cannot remember if you did a post here about your steps installing ubuntu? can you direct me to it please, if you did indeed do one?
I’m about to dual boot a win7 mini itx with ubuntu over the weekend, and then install MM, for the extra power it will give, and also wondered if JRE is installed with the ubuntu installer, or whether I need to do that separately? if this is needed of course?Also any hints/tips/pitfalls you can offer, about the install, will be greatly appreciated. thank you.
