If you're looking for a MicroATX board as a base for a HTPC, you might want to check if FIC's solution based on ATI's RS350 chipset is for you.
FIC has been a mainstay in the motherboard market for years. Maybe not as popular as Abit or Asus, but they have done well none the less. ATI has been a mainstay in the Video and Video Adjunct market for years, ATI and motherboards, until recently, were unheard of. Maybe ATI got tired of hearing how well nVidia is doing in the chipset arena and decided to play along, or maybe they felt they bring something to the table that was missing, most notably, integrated Video that didn't suck.
In my grubby little hands today I am looking over an ATI RS350 chipset based FIC motherboard, the P4M-RS350. This is a MicroATX motherboard that includes onboard Audio, USB, LAN, SATA and of course, Video. Let's take a look at the P4M's specifications.
