Hello, i'd like to build my first htpc, i can build it myself, but i'll need some help on the choice of parts, i never build any htpc, only gaming pc's
so i don't want to overkill...
my needs:
running xbmc + sabnzbd + sick beard + couchpotato
bitstreaming dts hd ma
silent
not too much heat, as it will be on my a/v receiver
ssd for os (windows 7)
nice looking case
space for at least 2 3.5" HDD (2x3TB)
ir receiver ?? *
* i have a OneForAll Xsight color remote controller: http://www.oneforall.be/en_UK/product/1/...ight-color so i'd like to use this one... i know the harmony works great with some ir receivers but yeah.. it costs... so if there is no ir receiver compatible with my remote i'll just use my android phone or my ipod.
i was thinking about this, tell me if this is good, what i should/could change:
AMD A6-6400K
ASROCK FM2A75 PRO4
CRUCIAL DDR3 PC3-12800 - 2 x 2 Gb 1600 MHz - Ballistix Sport
SANDISK Ultra Plus SSD 64Gb
BE QUIET SFX 300W (is this enough?)
SILVERSTONE ML03B (if there is anything cheaper than this (costs me 75€) and also looks nice like this case, please tell me)
should i take another heatsink, wich one?
these make a total amount of 350euro
