dtran Posted August 13, 2014 Share #3 Posted August 13, 2014 Thanks for reporting this, but do you have any power numbers (idle/load)? The cpu performance is comparable if not better than J1900, although with higher TDP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnapps Posted August 18, 2014 Share #6 Posted August 18, 2014 The AM1b-ITX cannot be compared with the Q1900-ITX unfortunately as the Q1900 comes with an embedded J1900 quad-core, low-powered Intel processor and the AM1B with no CPU. Both boards can be used for XPEnology and both have advantages: - AM1B-ITX can be fitted with another, more powerful 30W TDP CPU (that comes in handy only in transcoding cases-Plex) - AM1B-ITX uses normal DIMMS DDR3 memory that can be used in a desktop and theoretically can be adjusted to more than 16GB of RAM (not that you'll need it on bare metal XPEnology) on the same 2 DIMM slots - AM1B-ITX has a PCIe 16x port - AM1B-ITX comes with more USB 2.0 ports (+2) - AM1B-ITX comes with 4x SATA3 ports comparable with 2xSATA2 & 2xSATA3 ports (in case you don't run your XPEno box on SSD only, you'll not need more than SATA2) - Q1900-ITX comes with an embedded low power, quad core, fanless, 10W max TDP CPU @ 2GHz - Q1900-ITX comes with a mini-PCIe x1 port that can be fitted with a mSATA half-size SSD or half-size mSATA to SATA adapter (theoretically and practically, 7 disks can be installed on this board) - Q1900-ITX consumes less power than the AM1B and is cooler and more silent due to fanless CPU and low power SO-DIMM capability Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnapps Posted August 18, 2014 Share #7 Posted August 18, 2014 If I would go now for building another XPEno box, I would definitively change the Q1900-ITX board with another one: the Q1900DC-ITX which is slightly expensive than the normal Q1900-ITX because it comes with a DC power adapter but it's definitively less expensive than a normal Q1900 with a PSU. The DC version also comes in handy as you'll not need an internal power supply and therefore, your box is even more silent and less noisy!!!

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I had the same thoughts until I realized I can buy a pico power supply which has the DC power input and plugs into any standard motherboard.
