I'm looking to build a quiet HTPC, but I'm on a budget.
Can anybody recommend (If such a thing exists), a motherboard and CPU (Separate units, or combined on a single board) that runs on a heat sink without a fan, for under £200. Which is powerful enough to run Windows 10.
My only real requirements are that it be able to play Blu-Ray without stuttering using Kodi, and that it has an HDMI output.
I have no plans to use it for 4K or gaming, but it absolutely needs to be able to run Windows 10 at an "acceptable" rate as I also plan to use it as a second home computer to do basic home computer stuff.
I already have a couple of media streamers, and a Pi, so I'm specifically looking for this to be a full PC.
