Intel Q67 Mini-ITX Build

[bebopfan]

Good morning everybody,


I've searched throughout the forums but can't seem to find an answerplenty, so I'm coming to you for help. I want to build my girlfriend a little Hackintosh. Specifically, she wants to use the following case "http://www.bitfenix.com/global/en/products/chassis/prodigy/", BitFenix Prodigy case which is a Mini-ITX case.

With this limitations in mind, and with some Staples credit available, I saw that they still have the Intel Q67 Mini-ITX board available. I read through several threads with folks using the Jetway Q67, but there's been no mention of the Intel.

Reasons the Intel sounds good to me:
Available from Staples, where I have credit, meaning no cash OOP.
Intel LAN

The idea would be to use an i3 or something similar and then grab a compatible GFX card.


So my question is, what problems would I face in terms of compatibility, particularly because I can't find a DSDT for this MoBo and is it worth it to use this one?

Are there any other Mini-ITX MoBo's people are happy with?

I look forward to everybody's responses and thanks.

Wait for Gigabyte's new mITX boards... they are coming within weeks.

Thanks, Mate.

Form Factor is a big deal for this build, so knowing that there are some new ones on the way is great. I'll try and get her to wait just as patiently.
