[QUOTE="NorthernJohn, post: 110738, member: 18239"] I'm hopefully soon to upgrade my TV. Gonna go for a 32" LCD with HDMI input. Which seems to me to be a good excuse to upgrade the graphics on my HTPC. :D Currently running the onboard graphics of my MS-7093 motherboard. I've got my eye on a passive GeForce 7600 GS. Seems to tick all the boxes... until I looked at the recommendations from my motherboard. The manufacturers website recommends I use ATi Radeon. Will it matter? Nearly everywhere I read, nvidia seems to win on the DVD playback front. This is for HTPC only, no games. So... should I listen to the motherboard manufacturer or will the nvidia be OK? Thanks [/QUOTE]
