Hi,
Im trying to piece together an htpc build for my brother.
My goal is as silent as possible for as cheap as possible (dont think I can justify an extra £45 for the Nesteq Semi Fanless PSU).
Lian Li PC-V800B
E2140 or E6300 (new 2140 or putting in my existing E6300)
Gigabyte P35 S3 with onboard
2gb ram
500gb Hdd
iMon LCD + Remote
420W or 480W (20db) Xilence PSU or (12-17db) 400W NorthQ
HSF - Noctua 90mm
Anyone spot any problems with this build?
The Noctua HSF is 128mm and the Lian Li case 160mm.
Id hope the 400/480W PSU is enough for lower C2D's and possibly a future purchase of a 2400XT right?
Any suggestions much appreciated!
