Hi,
I've been working on my first HTPC build.
I am looking for an internal DVB-T2 tuner for my build. I am UK-based. Could anyone please offer suggestions? In the past I have had a Hauppage TV tuner which has worked fine but I never used it to any great extent. The top result I am getting from Google searches is TBS PCI-E DVB-T2 Dual TV Tuner. The reviews on Amazon are also favourable, but before I drop nearly £100 on a TV tuner I thought I'd seek some expert opinions.
Spec of my build so far for anyone curious:
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/2V89gs
CPU: i3-4130T
CPU Cooler: Scythe BIG Shuriken 2 Rev. B
Mobo: Asus H97-E/CSM
RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 4GB DDR3-1600
Boot drive: Samsung 850 EVO-Seriers 250GB SSD
Storage drive: WD Caviar Green 3TB 5400RPM
Case: SIlverstone GD06B
PSU: SeaSonic 360W 80+ Gold
Case fan: Noctua NF-S12A ULN
As for the peripherals, I am hoping to grab some spares from what I already have.
I have an Asus Chromebox connected to my TV that I intend to use for the primary front-end.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Dom
