Hey there. Building myself a HTPC for my living room. I only want to spend around 1000 euro. I would like it to have blu-ray, high-capacity hard-drive, very good sound sound and video playback and I would like to be able to record and burn digital satellite tv. Not planning to over-clock it and it has to be fairly silent. Here's what i'm thinking of.
■Antec Fusion 430 Silver, 430w PSU, HTPC, Micro ATX, aluminium front bezel
■Creative SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio
■Crucial DDR2 PC5300 2048MB CL5 Kit w/two matched DDR2 PC5300 1024MB CL5
■Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 2.33GHz 1333Mhz Socket LGA775, 4MB, BOXED w/fan
■Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium Eng OEM DVD 32bit
■MSI G31M2-FD V2, G31, Socket-775, DDR2, 1333FSB, m-ATX, GbLAN, DVI, PCI-Ex16
■Pioneer DVD±RW-burner, BDC-S02BK, 12x, Blu-Ray Reader, SATA
■Samsung SpinPoint F1 750GB SATA2 32MB 7200RPM
■TerraTec Cinergy S2 PCI HD & CI, DVB-S/S2 (HD), with CI internal module
■PowerColor Radeon HD 3450 256MB DDR2, PCI-Express 2.0, SCS (HeatSink), DVI-I
I have a sky subscription, has anyone ever used their sky card with a PC CI module?
Here is a link to my shopping list.
