Ive been running MP for about 1 year now and im almost satisfied now.

Case: Apevia X-QPack 2
PSU: 400Watt
Motherboard: Biostar P4M900-M4
Graphic Card: MSI R3450-TD256H
Memory: 4GB A-data
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 3.2 GHz
CPU Cooler: Stock Intel
Audio: Sound Blaster Audigy 2
HDD: Samsung 250GB Sata
Opticaldrive: None for the moment (BluRay on its way)
TVCard: Digital Everywhere FloppyDTV-C
Remote: Digital Everywhere Optionalkit for the FloppyDTV series
Monitor: LG 47" LCD-TV (Full HD)


Software
Windows XP Pro Sp3
Mediaportal 1.0 RC3 (Xface)

Im almost done with my system now. DXVA for BluRay movies works like a charm.
1080p isnt a problem to play at all thanks to the hardware acceleration.
Next on my wishlist is another FloppyDTV card and a new soundsystem with a
DTS reciver. Been looking close at Linn and Cerwin Vega.

Apevia X-QPack 2 (Blue)

One of the better chassis i found since i needed a 3.25" slot for my FloppyDTV.
