i find it hard to impossible to believe that people who are ocing are using the onboard video.
no one in their right mind would do that, htpc or not

Hi I'm Mr. not n the right mind 367FSB 14.5hrs per day re encoding dvd's to MP4. On 24/7 now. Still going strong

Nem, it would be you huh lol

hows the x700 doing for you (the onboard) i had two 1 in the lappy and 1 as an old backup card if i needed one.
the desktop one is worhtless and it had 256meg ram.
the lappy one for some reason kicks but, so i could see if the onboard of the abit is similar and better than the lappy one then things could be good. but eh... its still onboard with slow shared memory.

and no one in their right mind is a general statement given that ocing with onboard video is not stable and typically lowers OC, historically that is.

Well I got my replacement board, it's not complaining at 334fsb, I am not going to be turning on the onboard video so lets see how it does.

12 is on the ftp
abit UK say that they've had only 3 or 4 I-90HDs returned to them as faulty so they currently aren't seeing it as having a high failure rate.

Up and running, limited to XP for this build and I may switch to media center edition for best fit.

The case comes with a media center package for XS, works with the remote as well. It is already setup for dual displays to work correctly.
