Hello again, anybody out there who is already using Intel Core2Duo systems? Share your thoughts!
I recently built a new mythtv box with GigaByte GA_965P_DS3 motherboard and 2.4ghz core 2 duo, it has onboard HDA Intel sound with ALC882 Codec, I am using spdif output to a yamaha home cinema amp (stereo output and dts spdif passthru) Ive also briefly used the headphone output, all outputs work very well, I have not used any inputs yet. I have problems with other parts of the system but fixes for those are coming in 2.4.18, there are patches and workarounds for other issues, the only remaining problem I have is no pata support so no cdrom or dvdrw :( The first Intel system I have built for myself since a PII-266, and I am very impressed!
