I was going to go that route, but I've been reading about issues with 23.976 fps playback with the embedded Intel GPU, so decided to go with the discrete card....

I hope so!
. I'm currently using an old Acer Revo with XBMC, and have loved it, but figured it was time for an upgrade... Especially if the issues with bitstreaming TrueHD etc. in Ubuntu get sorted out...(2012-04-28, 15:58)Sdpbc Wrote: Do you think it would interfere with an optical drive if one wanted to put one in down the line?
I'm assuming this question was directed at the heatsink discussion, but if the concern is with the video card interfering, no problem at all
. One thing I needed to do to get this particular card to fit was bend the case metal slightly where the video card screws into the case. I heated it up with a hair dryer and easily bent it out of the way. The hdmi input on this video card is fairly high up on the card, and the case interferes with the hdmi cable (see attached pics)
