HTPC Motherboard

[crossnet]

Hi Group,

I'm looking at components for a new High Def HTPC and came across the Intel DG45ID Media Series MB. It seems to have everything I need, plus on-board video with HDMI and DVI outputs. Looks like a good solution at a reasonable price, but I'm a little concerned about the built in graphics capabilities.

Has anyone used this MB for with GBPVR?

I would also appreciate any other recommendations for a next generation system.

From HD HQV tests by renethx from avsforum, it has excellent deinterlacing capabilities, which makes it particularly good for 1080i OTA broadcasts.
