[QUOTE="backslash, post: 177711, member: 27127"] I would go for AMD because of this Mobo/Chipset: [url]http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=101&l3=496&model=1585&modelmenu=1[/url] I just build a system for myself: ASUS M2A-VM HDMI (EUR 67.99) AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ EE (EUR 82.99) 1GB DDR-II-800 PC6400 CL5 MDT (EUR 42.99) Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 (EUR 10.99) Alltogeteher roundabout EUR 200,- excluding HD and Case. The Mobo is passively cooled, has an HDMI, DVI, VGA, S/PDIF... output and the onboard gpu can playback HD content without any problems. There are rumors that a BIOS update is coming for the chipset which enables hardware supported decoding of HD material anytime soon. The system has power, is absolutely silent and energy efficient. Install the CCCP codec pack and enjoy your HD material. You won't get more bang for your bucks! [/QUOTE]
