CPU: e2160
RAM: 2gb Geil ULL PC6400 DDR2
HDD: 80gb WD 5400rpm laptop HDD
Optical drive: Panasonic slot loading laptop DVDRW
CPU cooler: Akasa AK-956SF heatsink
Case: Morex Noah ITX with integrated 80w PSU

Installation was very straightforward. The layout helped a great deal and was complete in around 20 minutes. The WiFi adaptor screwed straight onto the board and didn't foul the I/O plate at the rear of the case.

Initially i tried to overclock the e2160 CPU i had installed in the board and i also tried to clock its onboard GPU.

The stock speed of the components were:

CPU: 1.8ghz
GPU: 450mhz / 1200mhz

I managed to overclock both components to an unexpected and fairly impressive level:

CPU: 3ghz (0.08v increase)
GPU: 580mhz / 1400mhz (0.02v increase)

While overclocking i also tested the operating temperature of the hardware using OCCT to fully load it as well as monitoring temperatures.

First up was the CPU:


These temperatures are fairly standard for the e2160 @ stock.


Not much of an increase really - probably more to do with the small bump in voltage.

Finally came the GPU:


I was very impressed with the operating temperature here.


And even more impressed by this 'overclocked' result - very cool!!!

Now that i have the stock and overclocked speeds available i will endeavour to test how well it performs and what extra 'free' performance is available through overclocking.

I will try a variety of tests with the GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi to assess it's desktop, AV and gaming credentials.
