ASUS unveiled on Friday a Viiv-certified new micro-ATX mainboard, the N4L-VM DH.
The N4L-VM DH is Windows MCE-compatible and it is the first micro-ATX platform from ASUS to feature support for the Intel Core Duo Mobile.
ASUS claims the new N4L-VM DH is very quiet due to its Q-Fan technology and a Low-noise CPU cooler.
The Intel Viiv-ready and Windows MCE-compatible N4L-VM DH comes with many multimedia features. The TV Out connector embedded on the motherboard provides a gateway to view digital media on big screen such as LCD TV, while the ALC 882M 8-CH high definition audio with S/PDIF completes the experience for overall audible pleasure with Dolby Master Studio. Additionally, with the purchase of ASUS R-DVI-ADD2 card, DVI output is made available. The Intel 82573L Gb Ethernet connector also allows instant internet connection.
The N4L-VM DH is also embedding two SATA ports as well as two external SATAII ports. The SATAII standard delivers a 3Gb/s transfer speed.
