[QUOTE="ryan20021982, post: 569235, member: 78143"] I just built another one recently using a mini-itx board Its the J&W MINIX 780G-SP128M Mini-ITX AM3/AM2+/AM2 Motherboard [url=http://www.amazon.com/MINIX-780G-SP128M-Mini-ITX-AM3-Motherboard/dp/B001FRZQCO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1264519148&sr=8-2]Amazon.com: J&W MINIX 780G-SP128M Mini-ITX AM3/AM2+/AM2 Motherboard: Electronics[/url] Very happy with it, I dont use the slot but it has a pci-e slot. Mine consumes 60w playing HD and thats using a amd 65w cpu. The 45w amd's like the 4850e and the 5050e arent made anymore and I didnt want to pay the outrageous price of them that are left on ebay now. I have another mediacenter that I ordered a new mobo for and I might take the 5050e out and swap the cpus in the systems, that should drop the watts a little, but mine is setup to go to sleep and shut the tv off when it does using IRSS so it's not really a big concern. They also have the new MINIX™ 785G-SP128MB which uses the ATI 4200 instead of the 3200 but mine plays everything I have from divx to 22mb/s bitrate HD no problem.
