My idea is to buld a HTPC which is silent, easy to use for other family members, supported by XP and Linux.
These I'm planning now to purchase:
I already have the chassis and VGA card.
Chassis: Silverstone LC10M http://www.silverstonetek.com/products-lc10m.htm
Mobo MSI AM2 NF570 2*PCI16X 6*RAID 2*GBL FW K9N PLATINUM
Review: http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?id=1923&cid=6
Prosessor: AMD ATHLON 64 X2 3800+ AM2
Memory: AMD DDR2 2X 1GB
Power: NEXUS SILENT POWER 350 W ATX NX-3500 (19dB)
HD: SEAGATE BARRACUDA 7200.10 320GB 16MBPATA ST3320620A
Graphics card: XFX nVidia Geforce 6600 256MB Passive cooling
