Oh hell yeah. I run a A8 powered HTPC that I built for around 600 or so. It runs a single HDMI input for HD audio and video into my Onkyo 7.2 amp. From there it is pushed out to my 67" Mitsu DLP. I have a Microsoft wireless USB receiver that allows me to connect a wireless xbox 360 controller to the setup. It's…
