GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: lots of features , and for those who say it sucks for video games just get a video card!!!!!!!! this is not a play station or xbox !!

Cons: non yet , hope not to get any!

Overall Review: for those who can not make the hdmi audio work , this is how to enable it : bios - advanced bios - onboard vga output - change the display from d-sub-dvi to d-sub-hdmi after that, the option under vga onboard output (init display first) change it to onboard and save it .Go to control panel - audio device - device playback and set hdmi audio thats it .....

My second Acer Projector (Excellent)

Acer H5370BD WXGA 1280x720 HDMI w/ Bright ECO Mode 2500 ANSI Lumens w/ Carrying Bag 3D Ready DLP Projector

Pros: Great picture. Throw distance is perfect. Fan is quiet. Price.

Cons: You have to center the projector. ( I cannot move image left or right ) The remote did not work but Acer sent me a remote replacement over night since their repair center is in TX, I got it the next day. Very happy with costumer service!

Overall Review: I've been using projectors for more than 10 years.This is my second Acer projector. I own the previous version of this one for more than a year and it still works perfect. My average use is of 20 hours a week since I just use it for movies, casual TV, and games. I have two theaters setup at different houses and I love them. I don't know if I am lucky but they have not failed on me yet. I will keep buying Acer projector because they do deliver and they are affordable. I bought an Epson LCD and had to return it. The Epson projector was more expensive and somehow inferior to this Acer in picture quality and frame when watching movies.

Excellent

Pros: excellent for htpc.

Cons: My only complain is the stupid loud fan that comes with it. It is a very low profile heat sink and I like that, but the fan is so freaking loud. I like fans that only whisper.

Overall Review: The amd setup I have saved me more than $120 over the intel setup I was gonna get and I am very happy with it.

Pros: It can hold one 3.5 and two 2.5 hard drives. Power supply is very quiet. Looks excellent on my projector theater setup.

Cons: The only thing I can think of is if you are installing a 3.5 hard drive you must have a very low profile cpu cooler or otherwise the fan will hit the hard drive. I would recommend just using the 2.5 hard drives and removing the 3.5 hard drive's bracket to be able to have a big cpu fan and heatsink. I'm saying that because my amd cpu cooler was so freaking loud and I did replace it with a quiet one. I do not remove an egg because of this con because anybody who wants a small case for htpc should know that the space in the case is limited.

Overall Review: Just becareful for someone trying to get a 3.5 hard drive in there. the way to go is with the 2.5 hard drives.

Not bad.

ACER H5360 720P 1280x720 2500 ANSI Lumens NVIDIA 3D Vision Ready Home Theater DLP Projector
ACER H5360 720P 1280x720 2500 ANSI Lumens NVIDIA 3D Vision Ready Home Theater DLP Projector

Pros: Nice picture quality on a 110 inches screen

Cons: It does not have the opcion to move the projection left or right, or up and down on the screen. The only thing it has is the keystone. If you ceiling mount this projector make sure to center the lens of the projector with your screen, or you are gonna have an uneven picture.

Overall Review: It is an ok buy for a $460 dollars 720p projector. Remember, if you want to mount this on the ceiling, you can't position the projection up and down, or left and right, so you must center the projector with the screen.
