    If the AVIVO support is up to scratch to play VC-1 and H.264 with next to no CPU usage then i won't need any discrete card for my HTPC. Now just for AMD to release a super low power dual core to go with it. otherwise it's probably gonna be better using the new VIA processor with a HD3450 if VIA actually make decent availability for boards with PCI Express slots that is.

    w00t, this is striking the "time to upgrade" bell.

    I've been waiting for a AM2+ mobo for my Lian-Li PCA01B for months now.

    The AMD Black Edition CPUs are great for a low-noise low-power HTPC.
    Coupled with this mobo I think it could be a winner. :)
