Gigabyte H55N-USB3 review
Slide the latest PC processors under a microscope and you'll discover transistors measuring just 32nm across. So ludicrously tiny, in other words, that 500nm would fit inside the width of a human hair.Thus, enquiring minds might wonder why anyone needs a hulking great PC system based on the ATX motherboard form factor. Instead, why not go for a much smaller system based on a Mini-ITX board, such as the Gigabyte H55N-USB3? Measuring 17cm on both sides, it's much, much smaller than a standard 30cm by 24cm ATX motherboard. But it's powered by the same Intel H55 chipset used by much larger motherboards, such as MSI's H55-GD65.Indeed, the Gigabyte H55N-USB3 not only has an Intel LGA1156 CPU socket, supporting high performance processors including the Core i7 800 series, it can also handle high performance discrete graphics thanks to a full 16-lane PCI Express graphics port. Factor in a pair of USB 3.0 ports and the result certainly looks like a high performance package married to puny proportions. The Gigabyte H55N-USB3 is so small, it's hard to take it seriously.

Say Hello To my Little Friend! Gigabyte has released the first Mini ITX USB 3.0 Motherboard. For those of you that don't know the mini-ITX is tiny 17cm x 17cm. A standard power supply is 14cm. x 15cm. “The GIGABYTE GA-H55N-USB3 was designed specifically for users wanting to build the ultimate home entertainment PC; small and sleek enough to seamlessly fit into the living room as part of the home, yet powerful enough to easily transfer, store and view today's many types of digital media content, whatever the format,” commented Tim Handley, Deputy Director of Motherboard Marketing at GIGABYTE Technology Co. Ltd. “Not only does the GA-H55N-USB3 offer one of the industry's most exciting integrated graphics solutions with flawless HD video playback, it also allows users to spend less time waiting for their content to transfer, and more time to actually enjoy it due to its USB 3.0 GIGABYTE 3x USB Power Boost features.” Gigabyte is boasting a full featured motherboard in roughly half the size.
Gigabyte H55N-USB3 - Big Features, Small Package
The "media center" PC concept has been around for ages, but as I don't consider myself to be a huge media buff, I haven't built an HTPC in the past, or even thought to. But as you might have been able to tell from my recent "Ripping Your Blu-rays the Easy and Free Way" article, I'm beginning to see the light, as they say. If there's one thing I enjoy, it's convenience, and I'm starting to understand the major draw that an HTPC can offer. A mere five years ago, or maybe not even, it wasn't only me who pushed away the idea of an HTPC. After all, not too many people were keen on the idea of building a special PC simply for the sake of viewing media. Instead, people either stuck with their DVD players, or watched media on their PC. The latter option isn't always the most comfortable. Today, the ease of building an HTPC couldn't be easier. Components of all sorts are more affordable than ever, from processors to hard drives, and as an added perk, our motherboards have continued to get smaller. While a popular move today when building HTPC's is to use micro-ATX motherboards, a quickly-gaining standard is mini-ITX.
