I already have a Myth frontend/backend box running fairly well, but it could be better so I want to upgrade. I'll probably keep my current system as the backend and set up the new system as the frontend. I'm not interested in all the peripherals right now, just what motherboard/chipset I should go with. I want to be able to run digital audio to my amp so the amp can decode Dolby Digital 5.1, so that's the only requirement really. I'm not sure if it's best to do that with the built-in audio if it supports it, or go with an add-in sound card like an Audigy or something?
Thanks for your advice. Hopefully I'm not too much off-topic here but I know there are those of you out there running stable Myth systems? What's the secret? My current system is a Gigabyte motherboard w/ AMD 2100+ and 512MB RAM, and it crashes a lot while watching live tv or recording tv.
Anyway, thanks again. Michael
