i'm looking at building a mini itx system and started looking into the components I picked out
the first link I checked for a review was a post on a forum about the boards catching fire with this combination, one person said that this chip is far to power hungry for a mini itx board and/or the airflow isn't good enough to cool the mosfets, anyone heard of this or know anything about it?
