Hi guys. New here. I'm looking at building a new HTPC. Is there such a thing as a fairly quiet HTPC that can handle all the 1080p you throw at it and also allow me to play the latest games? like assassins creed 3, hitman absolution etc etc?
Having just got into using XBMC on my main pc, having a dedicated HTPC for XBMC and gaming would be ideal.
Ideally a case this size and form factor - http://www.amazon.co.uk/ASRock-3D-i3-370...pd_sxp_f_i
Thanks all.

When you mixed gaming and mini case, it tend to be very expensive. This little PC might fit your description- Digital Storm Bolt Mini-ITX Gaming PC......

Thanks pal. Yeah i thought it may get expensive. I guess you pay for the luxury of having your cake AND eating it.
I'll look into them.

Thanks
