Well, I ordered this today,as you may have seen in the cool HTPC case thread.
So, what am I, person without progressive scan, HDTV, going to do with an HTPC? Well, I haven't a clue, lol. But when a geek like me or perhaps you, has a spare Mother board sitting around, he doesn't generally just let it sit in a box. IE, he builds something with it! I considered converting my BMW to run on it, but with my luck with this board so far, I didn't think that to be to prodent. lol.
So Bing, here's Abit's second chance. He gets a new hard drive, a bitchin new case, and a new DVD Rom drive to wear. He has his chance in the spotlight. Time will tell what he can do
Still looking at video cards. IF I can get my Ge-force 3 to work properly in my duelly, then I may opt for a Radeon 8500. The card I am told may yield the best picture for DVD. I just downloadedthe 12.41 drivers to see if that helps.
Add an NIC, hope to be able to video capture, maybe even record to disc from directv. I will need guidance here folks!
