Hello I am hoping some people may be able to help me with a HTPC Build
I know how to put all of the hardware of a PC together well enough but I know very little about choosing the right hardware.
However I do want to build a dedicated HTPC (because until I do my partner refuses to let me have my PC back since I introduced her to Media Portal).
So far I am pretty much dead set on the SilverStone SUGO SG02B-F Black MicroATX Case so that means I am looking for a mATX motherboard for starters. Also I already own this 2TB HDD that I am planning on using
I will only be using the for MovingPictures and MPTVSeries in StreamedMP so I do not need to consider TV Cards, a good amount of media that I will be watching will be HD.
The main reason I need help is I need to create this build as cheap as possible and I don't know where to begin.
Also I want to connect to an LG 32" TV via VGA
Finally However much I want things like fanless PSU's etc I cannot afford to pay the extra so I will just have to do any fan noise reduction as possible and turn the volume up.
I live in the UK and have mainly been searching on Scan and Ebuyer
and I understand I am asking a lot from everyone and I am truly grateful of any help anyone can offer me.
Thank you very much Liam Hetherington
