Hi all,
I'm looking to buy a HTPC/gaming rig to run on my Home Theater. I would like to run games on max without frame rate skipping but I am realistic i know its not feasible under $800 so lets say good gaming capabilities. I am currently using an i3 HP DV4 Media laptop as my HTPC but is is obviously not sufficient for gaming on any level, although it runs XBMC flawlessly. I like Intel CPUs, i5 Sandy is ideal. I like the BIOS on ASUS' MBs but I'm open to trying something new. Anyway I refuse to do a long distance deal, I'm in NY, NYC near Madison park to be specific. I would like to make this deal happen in person. I'm looking to spend no more than $600 and the PC has to to on the smaller side.
Thanks
Mike
