What I wanted:
A HTPC for the livingroom and a HTPC for our gaming room. They needed to be able to play 1080p and 3D h-sbs with DTS MA and Dolby HD over cabled network. Have power for light gaming but stil stay quiet.
The shopping list:
2 SILVERSTONE HTPC SST-ML03B BLACK M-ATX
2 OCZ AGILITY 3 2.5" 60GB SSD SATA/600 MLC
1 LOGITECH HARMONY 200
1 LOGITECH HARMONY ONE
1 LOGITECH DiNovo Edge
2 INTEL CORE I3 3225 3.30GHZ 3MB S-1155 IVY
2 GIGABYTE GA-Z77M-D3H Z77 S-1155 MATX IVY
2 CORSAIR CX 430W V2 ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V PSU
1 CORSAIR 16GB DDR3 VENGEANCE LP PC3-12800 1600MHZ CL9 (4X4GB)
2 Philips OVU412000 IR Receiver Wireless MCE
Now for the install:
I started with the motherboard and the SSD.
Inserted RAM, CPU and PSU, as you can se this case doesn't realy have space for a PSU.
Hiding the ir sensor (TINY!)
Case closed and looking good.
Closeup
And the twins setup
And the closeup
The computers look and work great!
And experience index for those interested:
Coments and questions are welcome
