PS. Why do you need two HDMI? Do you have specific monitors in mind?
Everything that I have is HDMI. ANything else would require adapters.

If it does dual output at once, I'll just get a cable adapter and get this one...
ASRock A320M-HDV AM4 Socket MATX

As mentioned before there are no motherboards that doesn't support at a minimum two outputs - if there are two outputs on the MB. Dual and triple monitors is something everyone expects today.
From the users manual:
AB350M-HDV/A320M-HDV:
• Three graphics output options: D-Sub, DVI-D and HDMI
• Supports Triple Monitor
• Supports HDMI with max. resolution up to 4K x 2K
(4096x2160) @ 24Hz / (3840x2160) @ 30Hz
• Supports DVI-D with max. resolution up to 1920x1200 @
60Hz
• Supports D-Sub with max. resolution up to 2048x1536 @
60Hz
• Supports Auto Lip Sync, Deep Color (12bpc), xvYCC and
HBR (High Bit Rate Audio) with HDMI Port (Compliant
HDMI monitor is required)
• Supports HDCP with DVI-D and HDMI Ports
• Supports Full HD 1080p Blu-ray (BD) playback with DVI-D
and HDMI PortsNote that the resolution on D-Sub and DVI-D has is wrong above. It's the DVI that has the higher resolution.

Yeah @scottalanmiller, I just can’t imaging that the board you mention in the first post (or whichever post it was) does not actually run both outputs at the same time.
-
Awesome guys, thanks. I'll just live with a DVI to HDMI adapter, good enough. That board was so cheap (read: nothing more than what I exactly needed) that'll it'll make the most sense.

@scottalanmiller so now that you have an answer, I want to know WTF you are doing at the component level? I mean seriously. the time spent doing this intrigues me.

He wanted to reuse the processor he already had - from the looks of it.

No, just think that the A10-9700 is the right fit.

That's not what JB asked...

Well - JB asked about component level - and Scott mentioned a specific processor - I assumed (wrongly as stated by Scott's comment) that Scott had a processor he wanted to reuse - that would be why Scout COULD have been looking at components instead of whole systems.
Now that we know that Scott just picked a processor he liked - I agree with JB's question - time to look at whole system that fits the budget, don't worry about a specific processor, other than one that will get the job done.
-
I still don't know why component level was ever looked at. What is the need?
Whitebox is such a waste almost all of the time.

Agreed - who cares what processor it is, unless there was a specific need, like low power consumption, or super high flops, etc.

I was thinking more along the lines why someone is paying Scott $10,000 per hour to spec a motherboard... instead of CEO/CTO/CIO stuff.

Scott has always done this type of stuff as long as I've known him - I'm guessing he's either not paid to do it, or chooses to get paid a lot less TO do it.

So why do you care about the components? Just get something off of a shelf that meets your performance requirements.

Damnit @scottalanmiller, you just made me upvote something from @DustinB3403

This WAS me buying off of the shelf. The vendor used motherboards that all had this HDMI / DVI limitation.
The one I'm going with is the one in the off the shelf solution.
