Just wondering if anyone is using a motherboard with integrated graphics.
I am looking for micro atx board to build my system - what I have noticed is that there are a lot with integrated graphics, for almost no extra cost.
I had intended to use my Rad 8500 [relegate from gaming PC] or buy a Rad 7500 or similar.
I know that Rad DVD is supposed to be the best, but I have WinDVD and PowerDVD software also.
Any views
Other Note, Socket 370 boards are easily the cheapest, but the chips [cel + p3] seem very expensive [relatively speaking], whereas Socket A boards are more expensive, but the chips are cheap.
What would peeps consider to be the minimum CPU for home cinema only - just DVD playback etc, either intel or AMD
