So I've finally decided to jump on the HTPC bandwagon. Here is my build so far:
cpu - AMD A8-3850 Llano 2.9GHz Socket FM1
motherboard - ASRock A55M-HVS FM1 AMD A55
power supply - FSP Group FSP400-60EGN 24Pin 400W
case - SILVERSTONE Black Aluminum skin reinforced plastic front panel, 0.8mm SECC body MILO Series ML03B Micro ATX Media Center / HTPC Case
memory - SAMSUNG 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
ssd - Crucial M4 CT064M4SSD2 2.5" 64GB
hdd - Western Digital Caviar Green WD20EARX 2TB
OS - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882005097 windows 7 home premium
tv tuner - 1080i with 2 tuner minimum ???
this will be hooked up through an LG 5.1 blu-ray reciever to an LG 60" plasma
I havn't bought any computer hardware in about 8 years so I'm not even sure if my choices were any good. I want to use this in place of my xfinity cable box. I would also like to be able to stream recorded (or even live TV if possible) to my xbox 360 over wireless. What type of input device would you recommend? I want a compact qwerty keyboard with at least 15 foot range and built in trackpad or something. I don't know what I'm missing so let me know if there's anything you can think of. I'd also appreciate lowering the cost wherever possible, as long as i can still play 1080 video with 0 stuttering.
