The HTZ282 din't have HDMI Input.

buy headphone jack to coaxial cable

I need to change my HTPC motherboard.

May I ask the experienced forumner here which of the mobo comes with integrated Graphic chip that's able to decode 3D and comes with HDMI 1.4 ?

Can the latest E350 (AMD fusion) Mobo able to decode 3D graphics ?

Thanks for any input.

Peter, wah you r so advanced ... going for 3D movies ... you got a 3D LED TV isit ??

I'm still using a 42" non-HD plasma tv ... hehe

Dunno true or not, I read from technology trends & predictions, in the near future, there would be glasses-free 3D tv ....

Pls look at nVidia 3D Vision http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-main.html , I think it support Blu-Ray 3D & Games...

Hi,

Check if it supplied with ATi 6XXX graphics if yes then you can support 3D as it come with 1.4 HDMI

but dont worry if you dont get that as ATi5xxx chipset do support 3D via 3rd party software like Power DVD11 but the decoding will be handled by the CPU insted of GPU but so far so good for me

Thanks for that.

Stan, not that advance actually, but I need to donate the existing HTPC Mobo to office unit as emergency mobo replacement. So that open up my HTPC for 'upgrades'.

I do consider the AMD fusion mobo with passive cooling etc. But reading through some latest stuff if I can get the mobo ready for 3D, I would say why not?

AMD Fusion comes with Radeon HD 6310, more than enough for video playback. But I am not so sure about HD-DTS pass through functionality though. Certainly no word about 3D capability also.

All Radeon HD 6XXX is 3D ready (GPU 3D Ready) and since Radeon HD 5xxx it is already DTS-MA via HDMI so yeah all is there

Thanks. Will take note of it. Now I am just waiting for the news on the release of AMD Llano fusion chipset to see how much they would cost. If not this E350 fusion will be on the top priority.

no idea how much it cost.... I'm not plannin any upgrade

hi guys, my current htpc dimension is 380x95x285mm. i need a smaller case like Gigabyte MIB i3140 (268x70x319mm).. the problem is nobody selling it. any other suggestion? thanks..

Since u hv an Itx mobo, just go for silverstone sg06, or lian Li Pc-q09... Or cheaper mi 008

Just wanna share my humble setup

Zotac E350 AMD APU
Samsung 2TB
8GB So-Dimm ram
PowerColour HD6570 with hdmi 1.4a (wish for extra headroom since its an APU)
LG DVD (upgrading to Bluray ROM soon)
Chikai 500w PSU <-- any difference changing to 80plus silver/gold? Please advise


*H264 1080p files run smoothly with MPC-HC 64bit with (GPU accelerated) tweaking MPC-HC setting, Halli Splitter and etc
*Using onboard optical cable (Synergistic Research) for audio -> Onkyo AV receiver -> Wharfedale floorstander
*Van Den Hul HDMI cable connects to chikai LCD TV

Something to share2:

guys, i got problem.. my surround audio can only be used by powerdvd. but not windows media player and media player classic. they just emulate the rear audio to the front. help me...


nice. htpc for gaming too. but e350 proc not suitable for demanding games.

never said it is for gaming haha

then no need gc. fusion is more than capable.
