An Asus AT5NM10-I Intel Atom D510 (Dual Core)

Its been running very cool - 25c, no complaints about the speed either. I 
wouldn't use it as a development PC, but its great for Web and Editing stuff.


The case fan on the foxconn RS-233 case is a little louder than I'd like, 
though still ok. I might try what a guy at work suggested and plug the case 
fan into the spare CPU fan socket to get better control other fan speed.

The fan blows directly over the CPU heatsink.
