Hey there,
Glad I found this forum, seems like it'll be a great resource. Has anyone used the ASUS M4A88T-I Deluxe motherboard to build a NesPC with? Does anyone know if it will fit alright? Are there measurements that I should be looking for in a mini-itx board? I've had a dream of building a NesPC for a while now and would love to get started with some of my birthday/Christmas money.
Thanks
Mike

Yeah, ITX will fit. You may want to get a low-power processor (250 and 260 come to mind), some new LV DDR3 and a good 1u cooler. Also, grab a PicoPSU (if this is all you're puttin in there, plus a HDD, go with a 90W model)
