Since my 2nd Jetway J7F2WE2G mobo flamed out, I've been on the hunt for a replacement for my Ubuntu-based Psile box.
As I don't know much about motherboards, I'm hoping to get some advice from more knowledgable members on the forum. The machine does little other than run 4 squeezeboxes, connected via ethernet. Essentially I'm looking for a board that's more reliable, not over-spec'd (e.g. with gaming-style video capability) , but has enough guts to run the SBs without 'juddering'. A number of suppliers have come up with different options, including...

Also, any advice on the minimum amount of RAM to include would be a huge help.


Can anyone offer some advice?

Cheers,
