ASUS M4A785G HTPC motherboard - Blu-ray Forum

Ray_Blue_Ray · 09-10-2009, 05:14 AM

I'm thinking of making a HTPC some time soon. Should I get the new ASUS M4A785G HTPC motherboard? Can you bitstream the audio to a Onkyo receiver via the hdmi connector? What about TrueHD and DTS-HD?

That looks like a pretty good board to get this started with!

Not sure about the bitstreaming, it does support "Lossless Blu-ray 192kHz/ 24-bit audio" though.
