We welcome Albatron's attempt to expand the product line in the Mini-ITX direction. This model is attractive for many reasons and the first of them is the really great variety of the onboard ports and connectors. The other positive quality is the relatively high performance of the chipset's graphics core. No secret that the weak point of many Mini-ITX solution is the onboard graphics. Even if you can install the most powerful desktop CPU it can't help in the huge number of the users application concerned with 3D performance. Unfortunately the Albatron KI51PV-754 board is still hard to find and the price is higher than it should be. You can buy the complete desktop full-sized system with the similar configuration for the price of this mainboard. It can be hardly Albatron's greed but most likely the side effect of the shortage.

Use the 8-channel audio codec so as the chipset allows to install it.
