Hi,
I am currently using a MSI MoBo based on ATI's 690G chipset. For the sake of all the problems with HD (high CPU load, aspect ratio problems with CoreAVC, etc...) I plan to replace it with a 780G based board (probably Gigabyte or MSI) so that I can use Cyberlinks H264 decoder with DXVA. Since my OS and S/W setup is fine so far, I think about just replacing the board and leaving everything else untouched, i.e. the 780G chipset would run with the 690G drivers.
I know this is not the preferred way to do it, and I am aware that the system even won't start up, but I consider to give it a try, since a 100% fresh installation means a lot of work.
Has anyone done this before? Success or Failure?
Any comments on the GA-MA78GM-S2H board?
