Can't comment on the rest of the setup but the Avermedia 771's are 
great, I run three of them in my Mythbox, fed from an external 4 way tv 
distribution amp they work fine. All three recording, while playing back 
a recorded show :)
I'm running KnoppMyth R5A26, but see no reason why FC won't do the same.

Also, it may be just me, isn't an AMD64 and 1GB a little OTT to run a 
pair of SD cards? (where there is no need to process the incoming video?)

Regards,
Lee
