[QUOTE="VdR, post: 859846, member: 25818"] You went for AMD. The only reason I did not is because I'm totally unfamiliar with their processor line up. From reading the comparisons it is a bit of a wash and in any case both the i3 and the AMD are more than good enough. The graphics capabilities for AMD may be a bit better. Interesting enough in none of my builds it has ever been the graphics capabilities that bothered me, it is the processor capacity needed to provide a crisp MP GUI experience and fast boot. You also ended up with a u-ATX board, is there as little choice for AMD m-ITX as there is for Intel m-ITX to fit the Streacom case? Will you be using an external supply? Will you rely on wireless for streaming? Keep us posted on your build. [/QUOTE]
