I've inherited some parts for an HTPC that predate when I really started getting into computers so I could really use some help with finding the right motherboard. I have sort of fallen in love with the look of the Corsair 250D, but of course that only supports mini ITX boards. My current board (EVGA 680i SLI) is not only a full ATX board, but it has heat issues that will require me to spent time and money fixing. So at this point I'm looking to ditch it and get a mini ITX board that will accommodate the rest of my components.
They are:
This board doesn't have to be top of the line. It just needs to be able to handle my components, and have some basics like gigabit ethernet, a couple SATA II connections, USB headers, etc. I won't be overclocking. I also will only be using a single SSD so lots of SATA II connections are not necessary.
