I have heard of an idea to use the computer itself to power high wattage speakers but most of the time it was shot down due to interference in the computer.
I guess that went away look at this!

Wow! I know its possible to hack some speakers into being able to use the 5.1 mini outs on most newer mobos but this is the first that actually is built for such. Throw some bookshelf speakers and a passive sub on this and you got a nice little HTPC for the living room.
Has anyone seen Component out on a mobo before? Another new feature!
