[QUOTE="BKCH, post: 20797, member: 13992"] Hi All - am thinking of picking up a VIA MII-12000 LVDS motherboard to build a new HTPC for use with MP. But I'm not sure if the 1.2Ghz CPU will do the job. I really like the form-factor and the 1 fan design but I don't want to build it if I'm likely to get jumpy images etc because of CPU performance - I'd prefer to pick a bigger case to fit in a higher capability processor. I plan to use a PVR-350 for analog capture from pay tv (Foxtel) STB and TV out. I also want to use a PCMCIA digital DVB-T card for Digital TV I don't plan to play games etc but I will want to time shift and watch DVDs. I'm thinking of 512Mb of RAM. I'm thinking of using this case: [url]http://www.genius-pc.com/pro_01.html[/url] - which looks great. Anyone got any experience with this type of setup??? [/QUOTE]
