The UD (Ultra Durable) line of boards are named in 2 parts: First is the chipset and form factor, and the second is the suffix. | |||
The | The first part denotes the chipset, and an '''M''' indicates that it is a [[Micro ATX|'''Micro ATX''']] form factor, while an '''I or N''' indicates that it is '''[[Mini ITX]]''' | ||
The | The second part is an elaborate albeit somewhat confusing designation of features on-board. The following list shows the explanation of the suffixes: | ||
