ECS Reveals its First Motherboard Based on the Intel NM70 Express Chipset, NM70-I

ECS unveils its latest mini-ITX motherboard, NM70-I. Based on the new Intel NM70 Express Chipset, the motherboard integrates the Intel Celeron 847 or 807 processor, and features full Electrostatic Discharge Protection, Best Power Efficiency platform and full support for Windows 8.

Ideal for desktop PCs, home theater PCs and industrial applications, it manages power efficiently by turning computing functions on only when required, reducing energy usage by operating at lower frequencies when performance is not necessary. The ECS NM70-I also has electrostatic discharge protection and 100% solid capacitor for the CPU voltage regulator module to maximize the reliability and longevity of your system.

The ECS NM70-I supports video and storage upgrades with 1x PCI-E x16 (running at x8) 2.0, 1 x 6Gbps SATA and 3 x 3GBps SATA connections. For industrial applications, the NM70-I is equipped with 2 Serial ports(COM). Moreover, users can enjoy high definition media as the NM70-I supports HD 1080p and Blue-Ray playback. The NM70-I is bundled with additional software including Norton anti-virus, Muzee, Cyberlink Media Suite, and the ECS iEZ utility, which combines eBLU BIOS Live Update Utility, eDLU Drivers Live Update Utility and eSF Smart Fan Utility.

With official Windows 8 WHCK (Windows Hardware Certification Kit) certification, the ECS BIOS and drivers are specially designed for Windows 8, so users can take full advantage of the touch browser and function-oriented design of the new OS.
