What are some good motherboards for hybrid graphics for a gaming / media center PC? (aka use IGP for basic tasks and movie watching, then enable dedicated graphics only for gaming)

I'd be equally happy with AMD as with nVidia. (though I think only AMD has these mobos, at the moment)

Hybrid hasn't really hit its prime yet, was supposed to happen with the 780g/790gx but it only works with lowend cards as far as I know.

yeah as far as the nVidia side I think only AMD motherboards are supported by Hybrid SLI so far and as far as a HTPC motherboard you are looking at the

Geforce 8X00 series

and then of course the only video cards which support Hybrid SLI are the

9800GT or faster (newer) I believe.
