I'm looking to build a new mini-ITX HTPC and am looking for MB recs. I have a few requirements that I need it to meet:
Either socket 775 or AM3
1 PCIe2.0 x16 slot
10/100/1000 NIC
Must accept DDR2-800 DIMMs
On Newegg I've found the Zotac GF9300-G-E and Zotac G43ITX-A-E boards that are socket 775. Does anyone know of any other 775 boards or any AM3 boards that meet these 4 requirements? Outside of these 4 things there really are not any specs necessary.
I'm trying to reuse as many old parts as possible. I have an E3300 and a 240e Regor sitting around along with 2x1 and 2x2 DDR2-800 DIMMS and a passive HD5450. This will be on a hardwired network and while 10/100 should be fast enough for SD and HD content I have had better luck with high bitrate HD content over wired GigE.
