with everything out there these days
I am trying to build a small pc for MP

Small is a must
Onboard hdmi?
Is there any onboard hdmi yet that supports 1.3?

Only need one hdd as I have servers in the home for media,

So can someone point me to a SMALL mobo/cpu combo that will handle hdmi (prefer 1.3)
i play 1080 h.264 movies so i need to have the power to support a 12gig HD movie
And I would like the ability to have a slot load dvd drive (blu/hddvd eventually)

So toss out your opinions. I'm used to building gaming rigs.. not something like this. haha

Thanks guys!

some research i am finding a board with the 780G chipset is good?
Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H AMD 780G Chipset Micro ATX HDMI - (eBay.ca item 200236730929 end time 10-Jul-08 13:06:31 EDT)

can i use direct out hdmi only on this?

    Yes you can use hdmi out on that

    I just built one for a friend using this mobo
    Newegg.com - XFX MIA78S8209 AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8200 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards

    and this processor nice 45w low heat
    Newegg.com - AMD Athlon X2 4850e 2.5GHz 2 x 512KB L2 Cache Socket AM2 45W Dual-Core Processor - Processors

    as far as case there are many out there just need to find one you like
