smithyandco Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I have to agree it is good, I'm considering it for another media centre build. Compatibility is an issue though, on a few test PCs I've had it stall during installation and every PC I've used it on with an Nvidia card it stalls after a driver update so your forced to use an older driver. I'll be giving it another go on a medium/low spec PC for a media centre to see it's suitable once XBMC is installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
