After visting my cousin's home a few weeks ago and showing me XBMC on his HTPC I got hyped and wanted to change my WDTV. So I started digging into the forum for advice on hardware for my fisrt HTPC. This is the result.
[MOBO] Gigabyte GA-A75M-UD2H Socket FM1 Micro-ATX
[CPU+GPU] AMD A8-3850 2.9GHz Quad-Core FM1 100W / Radeon HD 6550D
[RAM] G-Skill 2x2GB DDR3 1333MHz
[HHD] Seagate 250GB 2.5" SATA
[CASE+PSU] OverCase Mini 2028 Black / PSU MA-6550 550W (+12V 18A)
[HDD] Seagate Freeagent Xtreme 1TB External (USB 2.0/eSATA) 7200RPM
[WiFi] Linksys WUSB600N
I'm not sure what group it belongs on eSkRo's list. Maybe a new one... 2 and a half ?
Group #2 1/2
(Note: I live in Buenos Aires, AR... some stuff is hard to get and very expensive.)
