Hi Everyone,
First off, apologies for making my first post a question!
I'm building a custom and am looking for some advice on a couple of hardware items.
Being illegal to do our own wiring in Aus I'll be putting together HTPC with some built in storage (rather than spending $$$ to get the place wired for a network).
Any suggestions on a Motherboard/CPU combo and a case would be appreciated!
A few things I'm looking for
- Support for at least 3 Sata hard drives (be using a WD 2tb Caviar to begin with)
- USB 3.0 Support
- 1080p support
- Handle the sexiest skins - I'd like to be able to show it off!
- Support some multi tasking (but not games, maybe some emulation)
- WIFI
No need for it to support 3D.
Thanks in advance!
