ASRock 3d Vision HTPC

What do you guys think about this?

I was planning an HTPC build but saw this. Seems to be going for $850.

Anyone have this and can comment?

I've used the old ion330 and they played bluray ISO without any problem. I just picked up a Vision 3D with bluray yesterday and hope to set it up this week. With bitstream HD audio it should be perfect for a HTPC. I went with the cheaper i3 model, since the ion worked so well, didn't think I'd need anything faster to just playback blurays over the network.

I purchased this one.

I have to say it's fantastic. Built in blu ray and it's more than fast enough for running WMC7. I love it.

I just set mine up last week and it's a very nice unit. The packaging, design of the system, and build quality are all top notch. I sort of expected to run into a bunch of problems since PC hardware never works right, but to be honest I was surprised and didn't run into a single problem.

I got mine from newegg for $759.
