I'd used Ubuntu for a long while, but wanted an OS at home that was closer to what I use at work (RHEL6). I liked CentOS a lot better than Fedora because it seemed to be much more stable if a bit boring. Anyhow, I plan on sticking with CentOS and would like to be able to take advantage of Plex updates without needing to move to a different operating system.

I re-built my system over the weekend... starting out with a minimal install of CentOS 6.5...
I noticed that the i3 iGPU was struggling to cope with the brilliant image quality and sometimes skipped frames... I decided I deserve better... :)
Installed Xfce ONLY, removed nouveau and pulse audio, installed NVIDIA drivers downloaded from NVIDIA website (no kmod rubbish) and installed 1.0.12 PHT...
I moved away from the i3 2120 iGPU and installed an NVIDIA GTX 750 ti card...
Image quality is amazing, HD audio bitstream worked almost out of the box, (I only added alsa.conf) I am one seriously happy camper...
