Anybody have an opinion or can tell me what the ASRock A75 PRO4-M mobo has over the A75M in a microATX build for HTPC?

Nothing you really need.
4 instead of 2 Ram slots, DVI and a second pcie x16 is basically it.

Any microATX board you'd consider better than either of these?

I am going to at least compare ASUS F1A75-M PRO FM1 with ASRock. I've been very happy with ASUS mobos I've used and reviews are very good and ubundant. Is it worth extra $30, I don't now? Probably boils down to product and customer support. Any comments
Look at HTPC build Creed3020 posted with many pictures.

Iam using Asrock in my Desktop and my HTPC.
Had Asus and gigabyyte before also good but Iam not going to pay more just for the name.
There is no real difference just another BIOS and some minor features.
If you need the DVI go for the: Gigabyte GA-A75M-UD2H otherwise the asrock A75M.
If you want to spend mor take the ASUS basically everything the same.

Main reason for me paying a few bucks more for Asus is my expereince with Asus. My main system is Asus and I'm just more familier with BIOS, etc.
