I'm considering getting one of these silent ATX pc's (www.hushtechnologies.com), and making my existing HCPC a server (LMP case with 2.4gig P4 which is a bit too large and noisy for the living room). Does anyone have any experience of this PC. I guess my main concern is about how upgradeable any components will be given the proprietry cooling solution. I'm guessing that the CPU will not be upgradeable, but how about the graphics card?
I need also to decide on which card to get, i think it will either be the 9600Pro or the 9800SE AIW. Is there much difference between the two for output (not capture, as that will be a digitv card in the server) quality or options? Initially I will be using it with s-vid but will soon get an LCD panel so will want dvi. I probably wont use the capture part of the card much, but i may get an external hauppage to use with the cable TV.
any experiences of this pc or the graphics cards would be appreciated.
