Like its predecessor, the MEGA 180 has an FM tuner, directly connected to the front of the motherboard.

The MEGA 180 has a decided asset in WiFi. This mini-PC system comes with an integrated WiFi module. The RT2460 module by Ralink Technology is connected directly to the motherboard Mini-PCI port. It is to 802.11b standard with an output of 11Mbps.

The power supply is very important in a mini-PC because it is difficult to replace and must accommodate ever-more-powerfulprocessors and video cards. No problem here with the MEGA 180 as the MSI comes with a 250 watts power supply.
