I am babying this motherboard to be my media player for my living room. I want it to play youtube videos seamlessly, as well as streams from Netflix, cable on demand in HD. Occasionally, some gaming.
I want to max out this motherboard to its full capacity in memory, Processor, and graphics, and anything else you recommend.
___
Is it worth it? Should I build another one? I currently bought more ram to max out ($40), a new PSU ($40), and a wireless adapter ($40). Totaling so far to about $120. I am thinking of buying SSD (60GB), compatible graphics card, and the best processor.
_____
