[QUOTE="datfreak, post: 959032, member: 19079"] I was going to use the onboard intel hd4000 gpu - from what i have read it seems to do everything I want. Although on my older amd X2 htpc the onboard vid sometimes did strange stuff like half window after resume, so I eventually went and bought a discret gpu card which fixed some issues - I hope the intel doesn't do anything too odd. I will look into the a10-5800k before i buy the intel gear - i'm keen on a low power / heat /noise setup and even considering running passive cooling if i can find a low power cpu/gpu I was going to buy the 3220 which has the 2500gpu for $119 but then the 3225 is $135 and has the 4000gpu, so I thought it was worth the extra money. It seems a waste to have a 128gb ssd and only use ~ 10gb with OS and mepo files(ok time shifting files also). Maybe I could use it for tv recording, but use a script to move recordings over to the HDD when the sdd is 80% full. thanks for your thoughts [/QUOTE]
