Hello,
I'm trying to build an expandable, quiet HTPC on a budget. I would like to start with:
CPU: iCore 2105
BD Drive: Pioneer
SSD: 256GB Transcend
8GB RAM
I would eventually like to add:
2 TB-scale Hard Drives in Raid 1
a Radeon GPU: 6850
What is the most cost-effective and reliable motherboard/case combination to allow the initial specified configuration and still allow for described expansion?
Also, I have enough room for a full ATX if that's the best option. On the other hand, why buy a huge case if you don't need it.
Thanks in advance!
