Hey guys, new on tom's hardware hope this forum post follows the rules
Basically I am looking into building a low budget HTPC (less than $400) that will have a 1TB hard drive and be as quiet as possible. The main use will be to stream videos and music on the local network straight from the internal hdd.
The case I'm interested in is the Realan e-mini e-i7 http://www.minicase.net/product_E-I7.html
(Requires 17x17cm board and radiator below 54mm)
So what i need is mobo/cpu/cooler/RAM that will fit in this case, stream local 1080p movies without any glitches and cost less than $200!
Lastly I will be getting the 120w power adapter with this so the build needs to run under 120w.
Hope you guys can help
Thanks
