[QUOTE="htpcfreak, post: 559685, member: 87245"] Hi all, is there a Mainboard (best a AMD785 Chipset mainboard), that can disable the PCIe Slot? I cant find one. Maybe a another Chipset with 1080p Grafik onboard? Why i need it? because i will add a more powerful GPU in my HTPC to play sometimes Games on it. In most time the HTPC works as a TV Machine so i don't need the Powerfull Card, then i will use the OnBoard HD4200 for example. On this way the Powerful GPU don't need Power and dont turn the Temperature up in my case. When there isn't a Mainboard, maybe a another Solution? Like a risercard for PCIe with a switcher or something else? Edit: it must be a mATX Board.
