hi there, I'm building myself a dedicated htpc and I was hoping that someone could provide a check on my components
My aim is for a totaly silent htpc that will be run as a multi-zone/mutli-source media server as well as a dvd player. The software consists of Xlobby, Winamp (wav), TheaterTek.
I already have a Lynx-TWO B & RME9632/A-O4 in another computer so I'll be putting these cards into my new htpc.
My new HTPC will have the following parts.
1. Claritas 390M case
2. MSI 915GM-Speedster-FA4, I915GM, m-ATX Socket-479 (Pentium M),GbLAN, PCI-Ex16
3. Intel Pentium M 780 2.26GHz PC533, 2MB
4. Scythe Ninja Fanless Cooler (passive cooler for cpu)
5. Gx21gb4300dc Geil® Value Ddr2 1gb Pc4300 Dual Channel Kit (2x512mb) 533mhz (4-4-4-12)
6. Yesico 350ATX(T) Fanless 350W PSU 0db/A
7. Hitachi Travelstar 5K100 100GB 5400RPM SATA 2.5" 9,5mm (laptop hd)
8. Gigabyte Geforce 6600GT (passive cooler)
9. Plextor PX-716SA Serial ATA 16x16 Dual Layer DVD±RW ReWriter
I'll use a ReadyNAS X6 (in another room) with 4 * Hitachi 500 GB drive for the music and movie storage.
Are these components good enough? If not, what else should I be looking at?
thanks for your time.
