[QUOTE="SwingSultan, post: 229809, member: 53218"] hi, i dont know if you have thought your pc concept through. the first thing is that most wireless controllers dont have that much range especially if you are putting a wll between reciever and the controller. the same goes for the keyboard and mouse. for the tv you would need an extra long dvi or hdmi cable. an analog vga cable is out of the question due to the seriously compromised signal quality you get by using an extra long cable. blue ray and other protected media wont work without using an dvi or hdmi cable either. those long hdmi cables arent cheap either. last time i checked with my local pc shop a 5m dvi cable was about 80euro (germany). s instead of spending about 100euro for cables you could buy a better pc case with adequate fans. plus you wouldnt have to go to the next room to put in a dvd. there are many reasonably priced fairly and good looking cases out there (would recommend something shaped like a dvd player or reciever). tomorrow i can give you a detailed recommendation for your unhearable aircooled pc (okay if you put your ear about 10cm next to a fan you will hear a quiet humm). i can understand your wish that you dont want a a noisy pc standing around your living room. i myself have my gaming machine watercooled so i know what im talking about. but for the rest of the day i will do my test to advance in my studies of the fine arts of engeneering and will celebrate my birthday thus i will lead a more hedonistic lifestyle for the rest of the day and dont have time to plan a pc from screw to fan. greetings fabian ps: but tomorrow i will look something up. even if you dont want a pc in your livingroom i think my recommendation will make you think twice. at least it will be very helpful either way and much cheaper than 1000euro [/QUOTE]
