Awesome Beer thanks for the video! I can't wait till my case comes so I can get mine built. I got everything else just sitting here staring at me.
Not gonna lie, mine is pretty much going to be identical to yours thanks to you making me do a last minute switch to this case. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the windows logon sound though, that's gonna have to go away for me, either nothing or maybe something like the THX sound.

That is excellent speed Beer.....you beat me by 18 seconds. Since the beginning of time, my AMD E350+GT430+3 USB hard drives+AsRock instant boot is 38 seconds at the push of the button. If I remove the GT430 and all 3 USB hard drives from it, I might be able to match your bootup time. My E-350 is slower than your A6-3500 though....

I might be able to match your time with my next Intel i3-2105 build for sure......I'll meet you at 20 seconds.......

You can customize Windows7- Customizing Windows for XBMC

Have you tried playing a Hi10p encoded anime file with this htpc ?

I am curious if it would be able to play the following release (without hickups and/or stuttering):

[UTW]_Fate_Zero_-_01_[BD][h264-1080p_FLAC][50256238].mkv

Especially during the op / ed

A customised build of XBMC that supports 10bit can be found here (install it and run it with -p): Hi10p XBMC builds

Quote:Also I hooked up the Kill-a-watt and I was drawing 34 watts...I believe that was idle with XBMC and win7 running or maybe it was playing music or something.

Really? How have you managed that? My system draws nearly double the amount of power yours is using! Huh

My build:

A6-3500
ASRock A75M-ITX
4GB DDR
64GB OCZ SSD
1x Noctua NF-R8 80mm Fan

That's weird! I'll check again when I get a chance.
OP - 17 C is significantly below room temperature! What are you doing, watching movies outside in the winter?

i know the answer's no but, hey Beer40,
why not make a small 2min vid showing XBMC UI speed under your setup?

Because it's just normal as it should be.... I mean no lag..... lol maybe one day.

Beer40oz,
can u measure how much space there is here?

(click image for bigger view)
[Image: oVc6Fs.png]

most slim optical drives are ~5 in. deep...
just wondering if it would fit or interfere with shuriken's fan....

i suspect the space to be around ~9.84 in. (~250 mm) by the looks of it.
but, im probably wrong Tongue

thx
