[QUOTE="Maz78, post: 31935, member: 17741"] Thanks for the replies folks. I noticed in one of the other threads, a fellow member suggested one of the Asus mb's with everything on board, much like what Marcusb has suggested. Any ideas if this will fit the bill, and meet my requirements? [url]http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=15&l3=210&model=766&modelmenu=1[/url] OR The gigabyte alternative [url]http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/MotherBoard/Products/Products_GA-K8N51PVMT-9.htm[/url] I can source either for $140 in Melbourne. Will this save me from buying a Geforce 6600 for the Pure Video support as it's on board? I noticed it does NOT feature "Spatial Temporal De-Interlacing". I still haven't quite understood that feature and many people have suggested going for the 6600+ series for this feature. Can someone clear this up for me and what it does?? Basically, as long as I can watch / record up to 1080i HDTV, I'm happy. (And copy TV shows (standard def I'm guessing) and burn dvd's).Games are not an issue. If this MB can do what I need plus a CPU, I'm guessing around the 3000+ AMD series, I should be good to go?? And of course, true surround sound output without the need of a seperate sound card. Many thanks again! :D FYI: I noticed the 6150 which is listed as onboard this mb, ISN'T listedo n the Pure Video list of supported cards on the Nivida site?? [/QUOTE]
