Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: this week (the closer the better)
Budget Range: less than $500
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Streaming video/video from Plex server. and play DVD/Blu-ray. Maybe use for small games.
Are you buying a monitor: No, will using TV/Projector
Parts to Upgrade: All
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, if plex
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Where ever it is cheapest and reliable.
Location: City, Acworth GA
Parts Preferences: Whichever is best for the buck
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: Max and beyond. May be getting a new ultra HD tv/projector.
Additional Comments: This is for my parents, they are not super tech people, so it does not have to be top of the line gear. It would be nice if the case had a remote, bluetooth, wireless, or IR. If it had built in wifi and bluetooth that would be great also.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Parents building their dream home and want a top of the line media room. I told them that a HTPC would be easier than buy separate appliance for each function. And cheaper over the long run since they would only need to update the GPU.
