I'm gettin ready to start an HTPC build and have been lookin at AMD mobo's and am wondering which would make the better HTPC, 790GX or 785G???
So far all I have is a SilverStone CW01-B case and four Nexus 80mm fans. I plan to start ordering the internal componets next week, after some more research.
This will be ran into my Yamaha RX-V765 receiver via hdmi and than to a Samsung 50" plasma TV. I plan on putting my DVD collection on a couple of 1TB harddrives and also playing BluRay movies on it poss even putting them on a HDD. also may do some gamming so will probably go with a HD4850 video card if I can find a silent one.
So..... which would be the better Mobo for a HTPC that you can also game on?
Heres what I'm looking at so far:
