Small / Minimal Gabinet & Motherboard for HTPC - Faire - 2013-02-27
Hello guys,
Acording to this thread that I created : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=157719 , it seems like I will have to replace my Apple TV 2. So I think I will build my own HTPC. My goals is to have a HTPC which looks similar as the Apple TV: Small, Simple.
What I need:
- HDMI 1.4 output
- SSD support. Small, only to host the Operative System and some software, as I will be storing all my media into my 2TB NAS.
- Ethernet Port (100/1000)
- WiFi
- USB Port and Bluetooth 4.0 Support
I don't need and want anything else. I want something small, elegant (like the Apple TV) but powerful enough to reproduce a large music library and 1080 res videos.
Any ideas?

I'm in Chile. But I can buy some stuff through amazon or any store that supports international shipping.

Would any of these cases be of interest?

The Gigabyte GA-H77N-WIFI motherboard has WiFi and Bluetooth built-in. I am not sure the HDMI version, though I know the GA-H61N-USB3 is HDMI 1.4.
