Socketed Kabini meets integrated Wi-Fi
AMD is already looking ahead to a market filled with Beema and Mullins APUs, but in the meantime, socketed Kabini boards are starting to show up. Biostar recently got in on the action, and now so is ASRock with its QC5000-ITX/WiFi mini-ITX motherboard. This tiny motherboard features a soldered-on AMD Kabini A4-5000 quad-core APU and integrated 802.11n Wi-Fi connectivity.
ASRock claims its board uses all solid capacitors. It also has two DDR3 DIMM slots with support for up to 32GB of DDR3-1600 memory, GbE LAN, 7.1-channel audio, PCI-Express 2.0 x16 slot, mini PCI-Express slot (for the Wi-Fi module), four SATA 6Gbps ports, and several output options (D-Sub, DVI-D, HDMI, and DisplayPort 1.2).
The integrated Radeon HD 8330 graphics support 4K video output (3840x2160), though obviously you're not going to do any high-end or even mid-range gaming at that resolution. That's not what this board is intended for. However, it could serve as a foundation for a home theater PC.
