Just been pricing up the refit to my HTPC, and I came across this ASUS AMD 760G-based motherboard. Yes, that's 760G - not 740G, not 780G - 760G. A quick browse of AMD's website would suggest that this is probably an *even slower* clocked version of the 780G, with the previous generation of ATI Avivo - so hardware acceleration for standard content but not HD - and a new Southbridge - SB710.
Has anyone seen / heard anything about this chipset before, or has it slipped under the radar due to the massive attention on the 4890? And given that I don't have a BD drive and mostly use my HTPC for watching standard-def DVDs anyway, is there any reason this mobo wouldn't meet my needs?
