I am needing to build an HTPC type PC for my girlfriends new house. The PC will be used mainly stream TV, record TV, surf the web, and monitor the security cameras I am going to be installing at her house. I am looking for the best bang for my buck. It will be hooked up to a 42" 1080P HDTV. The two builds I have planned out are below. Any advice would be appreciated.
