Hi guys, I'm looking at building myself a 1080p mITX rig for taking to friends houses, etc.
I have two builds at the moment, seperated by about £100. What I would like to know is if theres;
a) anything I could do better (aiming for as low a budget as possible, below £800 max)
b) Is there any worth while difference in the 2 builds, considering an aim of 1080p on ultra/high settings with stable fps
