Title: Has anyone tried ASUS P5N-EMH HDMI motherboard?
Post by: lulolulito on April 30, 2008, 07:05:39 pm: I am looking for a new motherboard for a core and media director, I would like to get something with an HDMI port already on, and this one seems very nice, but I dont know if anybody has any experience with it, i will like to know if you can tell me a bit about it.

One question to the more knowledgeable members of the site: When looking at particular boards, what are the best resources to look at to see if they are already compatible with similar systems, like MythTV (can you tell I'm a newbie?). Is there a list of URLs for sites we can do some research at?

Unlike the P5E-VM HDMI which has the Intel G3500 graphics chipset, I am thinking this will work?

Thanks!
