Completed SiLenTYL's Zalman HTPC (1 Viewer)

[SiLenTYL]

Sooo... HOWDY ALL!

I finally had all the pieces i needed to put together this monstorous PC..so here it is :

Zalman HD135 HTPC Case (Black)
Gigabyte P31-DS3L Mobo
Core 2 Duo Quad Core Q6600 2.4Ghz/4MBx2
**NEW CARD Zotac nVidia GT430 Zone Edition**
2x1GB Corsair Twinx 2x2048-8500C5D twinx 1066Mhz RAM
Pioneer BDC-S02 (Blu-Ray reader, DVD-Burner)
Zalman CNPS8000 CPU Cooler
650W Antec Neo PSU
500GB Sata HDD /16MB
FireDTV Digital TV Tuner
...and the pics :

EDIT: I recently got the Zotac nVidia GT430 Zone Edition as my old graphics card died. So i had to be a bit creative with the case as it was not nigh enough to account for the extra high heatsink on GT430.

Hi

Maybe you already know that this display is nowadays natively supported with remote! Plugin can be found here: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/showpost.php?p=223285&postcount=188

Why didn't u mount the Powersupply otherwise, so that it's fan could also support the cpu-fan?

 

[SiLenTYL]

there is a case exhaust fan which essentially covers the cpu cooler ..seems to do the job

at idle temps are about 45c and under load about 65c
