We have got our hands on a handy little mATX board that just may be the handiest thing since sliced bread when it comes to building a HTPC. This is the Intel DQ35JO motherboard and it's built around the new Q35 Express chipset. It has lots of USB2.0, SATA and Firewire ports to keep most people happy. When you throw in support for 8GB of DDR2 and a DVI-D and VGA video ports, you've got yourself the makings for an all-in-one board. Intel motherboards have a reputation of being solid performers and from what we've seen on the DQ35JO this board is no exception. Performance is good and the board is rock solid throughout testing. It has a nice layout, adequate cooling and runs virtually silent with the stock cooler on our little E4300. HD Video playback seems to work very well using the integrated video and thanks to the DVI-D and D-Sub out, you can hook HDTV and a computer monitor to this at the same time for some extra fun.
