Taiwanese manufacturer Asus is preparing a push into the DIY nettop market with a new mini-ITX motherboard 'enhanced' with Atom powa. Seen below, the board is named AT3GC-I and it features a dual-core 1.6GHz Atom 330 processor, the 945GC and ICH7 chips, and has one DDR2-533 memory slot, GMA 950 integrated graphics, and two SATA 3.0 Gbps ports.

The upcoming motherboard also boasts Gigabit Ethernet, 5.1 channel audio, and has a D-Sub output. No word on pricing but Asus will probably reveal more about the board next week at Computex.
