Hi,
I would like to start purchasing parts to build a HTPC. If possible I would like to do it with the help of this forum only. Lex & Mats have provided a great place here, and, this is were I spend lots of time hangin around.
If it is possible I'd like to get specific brands and model no#s so as to not make any mistakes in buying the pieces required.
I have a FPTV with native resolution of 800x600. I may be going to a JVC D-ILA projector in the next year or so. My equipment rack is a middle Atlantic std 19" rack. Pricing would also help!
This from Jon in the Video Card thread:
1-Antec Black Rack case (options?)
2-ASUS A7V MB
3-Processor?
4-Ram (Type & amount 128-256?
5-Video card Jon (Radeon) Model?
6-HD IBM size? speed? 7200?
7-sound card? Would like to pass DTS/DD 5.1
8-OS Window 98SE ?
9-IR sensor?
10-key board(model IR)
11-mouse(IR) Want to get ccf for Pronto.
12-DVD ROM
13-Nic Card?
14-required software
15-any thing else required!!
I will try price out and buy the products locally if possible. This seems like it will be a learning experience for me as well as a fun project.
Thanks in advance!
