Does this system work with xbmc live (only)?
MaBo: ASUS Mainboard S-1155 H67 ATX 2xPCI-E Audio7.1 GbLAN SATA3 USB3.0 Raid DDR3 Crossfire B3-step
Video: ZOTAC GT 210 SYNERGY 1GB DDR3
Cpu: INTEL Core i3-2100 3.30MHz LGA1155
Cabi.. : Silverstone Milo SST-ML03B
Ram: Kingston 2GB 1333MHz DDR3 Non-ECC CL9 DIMM, ValueRAM. Memory: DDR3, 1 x 2048, 240-pin DIMM, Gold, 256M X 64, DDR3, Dual Rank. Energy management: 1.5
SSD: OCZ 60 GB SSD 2,5" S-ATA III TRIM/GC
I will use an external soundcard : Hegel HD2 DAC and an external 2TB harddrive
I heard that some Mainboards does not support hd bitstream.. but will i need it when I have the hegel DAC?
What PSU should I pick?
Thanks

Theoretically yes with other software

Not sure of XBMC support though

A. Except the A6 & A8 builds, none of them till you add one of these 2 GPU Cards:
XFX HD6450 1GB DDR3 64-Bit Fanless Low Profile ($47 + $5) (Windows OS only)
ASUS GT430 1GB DDR3 128-bit Low Profile ($60 + $0)

(Note that as of today, XBMC can't natively Bitstream HD-Audio)

You should update the guide or it will give wrong info.

You may want to clarify and state the I3 2120 with the Intel 2000 graphics failed to playback 3D.
The 2105 at 5$ more with the Intel 3000 graphics will playback 3D.
I would also question the posted test results as I've read several forums of people having success with 3D on the 2100.

Flawless to me!
you could drop to a A6-3500 APU for $90
and get a silent cooler with saved dollars...
and as PSU, well, i dont go crazy with the EA-380 since it has an 80mm fan...
i know its a good one with good reviews tho,
but i prefer getting the one listed in my HTPC guide,
and if its not available, i'd get the Silverstone Strider 400W

Do I have to have a GPU in order to get Bitstream DOLBY TRUE-HD & DTS-HD MASTER audio or is there any MicroATX motherboards that support it?

Hi!
I just bought these components:
ASUS F1A75-M PRO DDR3 S-FM1 M-ATX
AMD A-SERIES X3 A6-3500 2.1GHZ SOCKET FM1 BOX
OCZ VERTEX PLUS 2.5" 60GB SSD SATA/300 MLC
ANTEC MINUET 350 PIANO SVART SLIMLINE 350W
Got it set up with Win7 and running smooth, but I can not seem to get dts or any other sound other then Stereo through the HDMI? What am I doing wrong ^^
I've tried XBMC(put the receiver supports dts etc on), tried Mediaportal(ack!), vlc and windows mediaplayer classic.. Every one seem to just be giving me stereo :/
