Hello I am trying to swap my old gigabyte K8N Ultra-9 board and AMD dual core cpu 4200 with a new Kontron board. New board is Kontron KTQ67 embedded motherboard with a I3 cpu on it ,this board was given to me by a friend of mine ,I looked this board up and looks to be a top of the line board. My question is Will it work as a home pc ? I have 2 optical sata drives ,3 500gb sata hard drives,a brand new Corsair 750w power supply , extra case fans, and cpu fans and my old case .This board already has a onboard graphic and I would like to use it until I figure out if I want a purchase a PCIE card ,I do not play any games. I do not have the RAM yet and I am looking for a good deal If anyone here knows about Kontron embedded motherboards ,all I want to know if it is a good idea to use it as home PC Any help will be appriciated Here are the specs Form Factor ATX Dimensions (H x W x D) 12,0" x 7,5" 30,48 cm x 19,05 cm CPU Supports: Intel® Core i7/i5/i3 2C Intel Celeron G540, 2.5GHz, dual Core, 2MB Cache, 65W Intel Pentium G850, 2.90GHz, dual Core, 3MB Cache, 65W Intel Core i3-2120 Processor, 3.30GHz, dual Core Intel Core i5-2400 Processor, 3,10GHz, quad Core Intel Core i7-2600 Processor, 3,40GHz, quad Core Chipset Intel® Q67 Main Memory Up to 32 GB DDR3 (max. 4x 8GB) Front Side Bus Up to 20 Gb/s each direction, full duplex DMI 2.0 interface to PCH Four lanes in each direction; Graphics Controller integrated Graphics 2x Display port 1x PCIe x16 1x LVDS (optional) 1x CRT DB15 VGA Ethernet Controller Intel 82579LM LAN Ethernet 3 x GbE-LAN, (1x AMT 8.0 support) Hard Disk 6x SATA interfaces (4x SATA 150/300 and 2x SATA 600) w.
