The DFI LanPartyUT 915P-T12 is really an amazing motherboard that packs in a ton of features that both enthusiasts and casemodders can enjoy.

This is a good board that has good performance and overclocks well, though it could do better if the PCI-E lock worked better. There were really no problems with this board, though there was nothing overly amazing, a good solid first LGA775 board.

One issue that arose after posting of the article was that the S909 BIOS revision sets a default temperature of 51 centigrades as opposed to the 70 centigrades we stated in our review. The discrepancy stems from the fact that after flashing to the newer BIOS we did NOT clear the CMOS and, therefore, the onset of the Smart Fan was apparently stuck at 70 centigrades and caused the major throttling we found.

Through competing companies, the SFF PC has evolved from a bite-sized desktop replacement concept, into a Home Theatre PC, multimedia and audio station, and killer gaming rig. In this review, PCstats is investigating what the Soltek QBIC miniPC has to offer. This is a bare bones Small Form Factor (SFF) PC, based on the Intel i865G chipset and Pentium 4 800MHz FSB processor architecture. Soltek's EM340IM QBiC model supports any current Pentium 4 Northwood CPU, so if you don't need a lot of power simply get yourself an inexpensive chip and you're all set.
