Hey Guys,
I plan to set up a HTPC. I already built one (about one year ago), but that one was for a friend.
I would like the new one to connect to my Samsung UE55D6500. Main use cases will be DVB-S, DVD and BluRay Playback and perhaps some 3d BluRays as well. Software will be Windows 7 64bit and naturally MediaPortal. I plan to replace just everything near to my TV, except of the Yamaha Receiver. So there will also be some videorecording, slideshows, radio/music, "small" games etc.
After a lot of thinking and discussion I selected the hardware. But as the people in this forum are always very well informed and have a lot of experience, I decided to ask you for recommendations, hints and comments. Are there problems in the setup or just room for improvement?
CPU: Intel Core i3-2100T, 2x 3.10GHz, boxed
MB: Gigabyte GA-H67MA-USB3-B3
RAM: Kingston ValueRAM DIMM Kit 8GB PC3-10667U CL9 (for RamDISK)
Harddrive: Crucial m4 SSD 64GB, Samsung EcoGreen F4 2000GB
Graphic Card: Sapphire Ultimate Radeon HD 6670, 1GB GDDR5, passiv
Drive: LG Electronics BH10LS30 schwarz
PowerSupply: be quiet! SFX Power 300W SFX12V 3.2 (SFX-300W/BN133)
Case: Techsolo TC-400 schwarz, 350W ATX
DVB-S: DigitalDevices Cine S2 V5.5

Thanks for your support
