I’m trying to design my first PC, although I’ve assembled some specified by others. System is to receive and record OTA HDTV and get away from Comcast. The current component list is: i3-2120T, two AverMedia TVHD Duet cards, 2 x 4GB DDR3 1333 memory, Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.5" internal drive, Blue Ray R/W drive, Bluetooth (for keyboard), wifi (for network) and firewire (for movie camera). Planned board is an Intel DH77EB, which supports consumer IR interface, though I’m still trying to make sure that all the stuff will have some place to plug in.
I’m having a terrible time finding a case. Because of the furniture, it can’t be over 5” high. No real constraint on width, but depth needs to be 15” or less. And with a front IR port. Won’t need a big power supply, but I’d rather install my own than have one build in, if possible.
I’ve been going from vendor to vendor site and having to search through each description. I can’t find a selection tool that even admits to such options as Consumer IR ports.
Any suggestions on finding cases, or comments on the planned machine?
Any help appreciated.
