I would avoid intel (GMA950)... not because it´s bad hardware but 
because it has bad drivers. At least in my experience with a shuttle 
box and a mac mini (btw.. very nice little box :-) ).

[Freevo-users] no noise freevo box

2009-02-26 Thread cornelius
Hello List,

I want to setup a new freevo box. I want to make it small, flat and
silent. I got a case with a passiv DC/DC PSU.
I will use the box mainly for watching AVIs and listening to music.

At the moment I am using the matrox g450 on my old CRT TV. But I want to
use a default LCD Display in future. I am booting the box via network,
so there is no harddisk (making noise and heat) in it.

So I am looking for a board that is passively cooled, that has a onboard
graphics card and that is capable of doing the above things.

Is a ViaC7 or an Atom 230 OK?
Would a Via Chrome9 or and Intel GMA950 be sufficient?
Do you have any experiences here?

Kind regards
Cornelius
