Today OCAU have a review of VIA's "Eden" EPIA-M 933 MHz Mini-ITX platform. This is a tiny motherboard and CPU combination that improves over the previous generation with more CPU speed and a focus on video playback - but does it overcome the forthcomings of the previous version?

This processor is made on a 0.13 micron process and has the worlds smallest x86 processor die of 52mm^2. It has 128kb of integrated Level 1 and 64kb of level 2 cache running at full speed. As on the EPIA, the CPU is in a EBGA (Enhances Ball Grid Array) package, which means it is directly attached to the motherboard. This means that the CPU cannot be upgraded in the future.
