Now I have the NES disassembled and all the measurements ready. Roughly the inside mesures 22cm x 17cm x 7cm.
So now it is time to choose what motherboard to use, Pico-ITX, Nano-ITX or Mini-ITX. Here is where all the fun begins!
- Pico-ITX: 10cm x 7.2cm
- Nano-ITX: 12cm x 12cm
- Mini-ITX: 17cm x 17cm
The requirement is that it manages to play HDTV and have DVI, HDMI or Component out. And in the other projects that I have found a Mini-ITX has been used so for the fun of it I will not use a Mini-ITX motherboard. At the moment I am almost 100% sure that I will use a Nano-ITX board called: EPIA-NX12000EG . But I will probably change my mind many times before this project is finish :)
