N3150 MotherB. But what case?
#1
Question 
Hi all,

I'm currently having some problems with creating a HTPC.

I wan't to re-create BeeBox N3150 (Mainly because it will come cheaper).

I've been looking AsRock N3150DC-ITX and AsRock N3150-ITX Motherboards.

Can you recommend me a case where would be an expansion slot available.

And PSU if you recommend the non DC version of N3150.

I would wan't the HTPC to be silent (fanless if possible) and of course most least power hungry.

Any ideas?

Thanks people Smile

I was going to do the same, but amazon have the n3150 beebox barebones for sale at a good price. Add 4gb memory and storage and it works out cheaper than building from scratch.

Hi all and thanks.

Sorry for late reply.

I was thinking of getting F7C Evo, but I don't like the Optical Drive slot in there.
I wan't it to be clean =)

Thanks again and if you have more ideas, please tell.

I bought this one lately: https://www.alternate.de/MS-TECH/MS-Tech...ct/1225120

Cause all the other Streacom whatever "pseudo small" cases are still much bigger than a NUC / Beebox / whatever ... if you want it small I'd not build myself anyways.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
