Hi all !

I decided to publish my photos of my "precious" lol

I Bought Asus mobo and processor in december 2011,the Silverstone LC17B in february and finaly my OCZ Vertex 3 120GO in july.
But before, a little story: ;o)
I discovered MP in 2005 with begining of DVB-T in Paris, France after many tries with Meedio etc ...
I used MP during 2 years and was a little bit involved in french community for EPG etc...
But for further reasons (WAF,MP crash, EPG errors, etc..) i had to pass on MCE with Vista and 7 arrival... (but knowing it was not the good solution). I was following MP evolution ant was trying some versions during summers on holiday ;o)

During 2010 and 2011 i was tired of MCE and his stupid fu****g recording format ... (wtv ..)

At the end of 2011 after many tests, what a great surprise !! WOWW !! What a great work ! More stable, graphics etc ... EPG !!
So i decided to come back MP for everyday "on production".
No doubts: it's the solution !!

So i decided to invest for a new HTPC for MP (mobo, proc' and case) It's an awsome config regarding to other one here but it's mine and it's ok for me ;o)

Details:
Mobo: Asus P8H67-V
Processor: Intel Core i3 2105 @3,10Ghz
RAM: 4Go
HD:
2x Samsung:1To & 500Go
1x Seagate:500Go
1xWestern: 2To
Tuners:
Hauppauge Nova-DT Dual DVB-T Tuner Device (Dual DVB-T)
Cinergy T-Stick Dual (Dual DVB-T)

Hi,

Nice set up, I have this case and there are 2 things that annoy me.
1. The blue lights on the front are too bright.
2. The case is noisy.

I would be interested to hear what your thoughts are.

Cheers

Shadime

Hi and thank you Shadime.
I'm ok with your say: blue light is too bright: i unplugged the cable for the power light.
For the noise it's ok for me but i think it depends of people

Nice setup
what's your VGA Card ?
and you should try StreamedMP Skin , it's gorgeous

Thanks ! During august i replaced two 500go by a seagate 2to !

For the VGA card, it's the Intel's chipset which is doing the job ! (very well !) So no more warm and noise ...
For me it's enough for a pc which is only HTPC (no game etc...)

Ok for Streamed MP, i'll try it....
