This motherboard is a very good cheap solution to a new pc or and upgrade. Abit have very good software and hardware and are a company you should trust i have been purchasing from abit for ages and i have never had any problems.

If you are wanting to build a decent stable and long lasting Media cnetre PC, then the abit AN-M2HD motherboard is a good purchase it sells for about £40-£50.

Inside the box you find:
4x Locking SATA cables
The backing plat
1x abit driver CD
1x HDMI to DVI cable
1x PCI bracket with FireWire (small and large) and two USB connectors
1x floppy disc cable
1x IDE cable
1x Abit AN-M2HD

To bring power to this motherboard, you'll need a 24 pin ATX plug, and a 4 pin plug. Both of these sockets on the board are near the top.

The only down side i found with this Motherboard is that the onbord grphics uses sytem memory which is annoying and may slow it down.
