Conclusion
The purpose of purchasing an IPC board is to save money while retaining the flexibility of having an HTPC versus an embeded system. The problem occurs, however, when these embedded systems just don’t have enough juice to handle the your every day tasks. With the JNC84-LF, Jetway has provided a viable solution to that problem. The JNC84-LF both saves space with its micro-ATX form fact while keeping the costs down. The it also gives the user the flexibility of a full fledged motherboard with on-board graphics. JNC84-LF can be bought online for approximately $119.00. This makes it slightly pricier than the average board, however, it more than compensates the costs with the its features and versatility. With the ram and the processor used in the test ($47 for the RAM 2 GB and $139 for the processor Phenom 810) you will still have a 300 compact system that will not envy anything you can buy from retail.
