Viper Lair posted a review on MSI's latest barebone PC, which adds support for dual core CPUs, DDR2, Gigabit networking and HD audio.



HD Audio, and Gigabit LAN are welcome additions and "modernizes" the mPC family. The WiFi connection is an option and was offered as such with their previous mPC, but needless to say, this does give the user more options about the PC's placement should there be no hard wired Ethernet connection near by. The mPC 945 is not terribly noisy and much quieter than the majority of full desktop PCs. Temperatures are kept in check, and most of the time, stays under 60°C. Stability was never in question, and performance was quite good at stock speed, slightly faster than MSI's previous mPC 915.
