Hey all, I am planning on building a new PC for my living room. For the most time, it will be playing media files, including FLAC, video up to 720p (my LCD TV's native resolution) and dvd. I have been out from the market for quite a while so please help me choose a mobo for te following equirements:

1) Stable, I don't want to have trouble with it breaking down after I set it up.

2) MicroATX board (HTPC case), C2D ready (will be using E6320), will use a PCI-E video card

3) Doesn't run too hot, I would like to keep the fan noise to minimum, though no need for a silent PC

Any suggestions?

The new G33 boards are slowly coming out and from everything I've heard, they're nice stable little boards... and they'll officially support Penryn which is a nice little bonus.
