Hi, Thanks Goga777,

Asus Bravo 220 silent seems to be a passive model. Do you know if these

I got as PM one tip that pointed to this page

I wonder if some smaller number cheaper model with similar VP4/C skills
would do? E.g. Asus EN210 Silent? It could also produce less heat? The
text in Wikipedia is not perfectly in line with the table so I wonder if
GT2xx is needed for best VDPAU support.

It seems that the IONs are VP3/B so your prosal is certainly better (if
there is HDMI audio support).

 
 this series has very good performance for 1080i temporal_spatial

 have a look on qvdpautest

Fortunately there's google translate - so there's some worry about
passive cooled GT220s? At least the picture of Gigabyte GT220 shows a
pretty large heatsink and fan ;^)

BR,
Seppo

I'm not familiar with Zotac but I could try it instead my usual of Asus
mobos (the one that died was an Asus too). Zotac seems to be sold here
Finland too. 

I'm planning to use the old Silverstone case and the old working silent
high-effciency Enermax ATX power supply. That would rule out at least
Asus ION deluxe style boards that seem to have an external PSU and just
a DC connector in the mobo. I don't want to get external power boxes to
living room and would feel sorry to throw away working stuff ;^)

When considering other tips too it's going to be tough to decide what
path to take here: budget/minimal vs. more power and possibly better
visual quality etc. :^)

   Fanless, low power, and OS can be installed on SSD,
 usb flash stick, Microdrive, SD(HC), CF, you name it.  They all have
 usb adapters so that way your system will remain totally silent.

True, my old IDE HDD is not compatible with new boards, so some flash
based storage would be nice.

Seppo

I've been using flash-based on a few of my systems for a few years now
and I've worked pretty much flawlessly.  Though on those I have never
ventured away from the ext2 filesystem since it has no journaling.
However, as cheap as they are now (usb sticks that is), it wouldn't be
a big deal to have a couple on stand-by in case on died.

This is already been posted on a few different forums on the net.
Google will get that info quicker I think.

Also, I would think any GT220 has an own audio controller and
therefore HDMI audio but this is an assumption.  My GT220 does.
However, if it doesn't then I'm sure that it has an SPDIF IN connector
(whether it's advertised as having one or not).  I have at least one
other card where there is no mention of SPDIF IN anywhere in any
documentation but the connector is in fact there.  And I used it to
get audio with my DVI out, then a DVI-HDMI cable to get HDMI
AUDIO/VIDEO going into my tv.
