This review is from: ASUS C60M1-I AMD Fusion APU C-60 (1.0 GHz, dual core) AMD Hudson M1 Mini ITX Motherboard / CPU Combo
Pros:
VMware ESXi 5.0 installed successfully and runs well. The onboard NIC worked without any trouble. With 8 GB RAM and an SSD, this system can run quite a few VMs with reasonable performance and very low power utilization.
Cons:
The dual-core 1 GHz CPU can be a bottleneck so don't expect too much.
Overall Review:
I originally bought this board for a NAS and I will eventually be using it for that purpose (once I'm done playing around with vSphere on it). The six onboard SATA ports are great for this, or you could install a hardware RAID card in the PCIe slot.
