Just thought i would update everyone on my progress, my plan is below , currently i have some parts and I am in the process of building the HTPC. It will be running at 1920x1080 res and output to a HD plasma at 1920x1080 res as well via DVI>HDMI cable.
Server
---------
Athlon XP 3200
1.5gb RAM
Gigabit network
TV server / media server
HTPC
-------
Intel Core 2 duo 3ghz
4gb DDR2 ram - 2 x 2gb
Gigabyte I-ram - 2gb - For OS
ASUS motherboard
ASUS 860GT - fanless
Gigabit network
Ill post some screenshots when i get the last few parts. Hoping to keep windows xp and MP down to under 2gb to fit on the IRAM. Also going to be running without a windows pagefile. And no other hardrives, this will make the computer virtually silent with any luck.
