Micro ATX motherboards have come a long way from just giving users basic computer functionality in a small package. This motherboard type has made a name for itself as a critical component for Home Theater PCs and other multimedia intensive systems. Today, we have the ASRock ALiveNF7G-HDready Micro ATX Motherboard on our test bench. With onboard support for dual monitors and 720p Blu-ray / HD-DVD playback, this budget motherboard is sure to make consumers take a double take when they see it on store shelves.

ASRock, which is best known for its budget motherboards, has put together a decent integrated HTPC motherboard called the ALiveNF7G-HDready. With onboard video care of a Geforce 7-series videocard and nVIDIA's PureVideo acceleration technology, this compact MicroATX mobo is the basis for a very versatile little rig. The ALiveNF7G-HDready has no problems playing H.264 HD-DVD or Blu-Ray movies at resolutions of 720P, 1080i / 1080P with a minimum 2GB of RAM installed and a CPU at least as powerful as an Athlon64 X2-5200+.

It has been a while since we last reviewed an ASRock motherboard, but this budget manufacturer has kept churning out new and more innovative products. The ASRock motherboard we have our hands on for this Linux and Solaris review is the ALiveNF7G-HDready, which combines NVIDIA's GeForce 7050 and nForce 630a MCP with a wealth of integrated extras such as IEEE-1394a Firewire to offer a rather good package for its low price. This motherboard is also capable of handling 720p H.264 video playback with low CPU Utilization and HDCP decoding through supported software.
