That may have been great 3+ years ago, but now it is better to build a Mini-ITX case. I would defiantly use a SSD drive for performance, lack of noise, and power conservation.

60 watts VS what for an average Desktop tower?

i find this slightly disturbing

better to just buy a netbook. Less power and you get a screen and a battery.

It cannot run Aero, what a piece of shit.

Nice video, Check out my videos about Home Wind and Solar system intalling on the Rooftop. On Earth Day I won a green design contest for my home energy system the RoofMill. Have a look at my home wind turbine videos of installing and running Hybrid Energy Systems. Friends and Subscribers Wanted. Have a good day , Thanks, Sam

the via pc didn’t have a 3d card in it unlike the mid range one. they didnt show playing any video game where it can draw the maximum power or encoding videos. on top of that via built-in graphic doesnt even support vista Areo theme which requires Pixel Shaders 2.0 minimum. therefor in my view this wasn’t a fair test.

Free Energy is real and its here! The Oil companies are doing everything they can to stop these
information. If you want a Free energy machine , get the blueprints at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM , Join the

@Lokalaskurar
The mini-itX atom setups can often run under 30 watts as well.

Kill A Watt. Great name.

Looks like a CD player, or some type of modern toaster

Indeed interesting with a computer that doesn’t consume more than an ordinary llightbulb.
You could boost its performance, since you’re only using 1GbB of RAM, you could go for a mini-ITX motherboard, and use SSD-drives, to boost performance and lower power-consumption even further
then you could possibly even do just as advanced things on it as on the mid-ranged PC at the side.

VIA is awesome

LOL a woman builded a PC lol!

Its good for office but for games and design is nothing!!!
Dec 19, 2011 @ 12:13:18
or you could get a nvidia ion what they say only uses 18 watts
Dec 19, 2011 @ 13:06:44
well they dont mean its great but it means full fledged 3-d models and actions

I found 2 gig’s off ram to be on the low side already =/ Vista is VERY ram consuming apparently. The pc build here is very good for office work. For video-editing, 3d-modeling or more serious gaming it’s kind of a laugh. But I’d say that every office should run pc’s like these.

very nice video thankyou
but 1gb is not enought for vista or??
Dec 19, 2011 @ 14:13:12
I just checked the Via Technologies wesbite – that C7D processor is 90nm LOL
Dec 19, 2011 @ 14:33:34
intense 3d graphics like wow, lol
Dec 19, 2011 @ 15:20:57
… and that looks like a M-Itx board, not M-Atx

Think she meant Aluminum, or as they say there, “Aluminium.”
