[QUOTE="pryning, post: 21737, member: 11271"] Hi, I have spend a lot of time trying to find the right barebone for my HTPC project. I keep returning to ASUS Pundit-R, but i see a lot of complaints over noise on this machine. What are my requirements ?: I would like a small desktop-like model, that looks somehow like a DVD player. I would like it to have a display, so i dont have to use the TV. Card reader would be nice. IR receiver and remote would be nice. I have a Hauppauge PVR 150 card, which i would like to put in it. I has to be able to power off/suspend/hibernate or whatever and wake up to record again. I would be best if it is silver. Quiet. Reasonable price. To give you an idea of what i am looking for, here are some of the box'es i have been checking: ASUS DiGiMatrix ASUS Pundit-R (Sølv) MSI MEGA PC 865 PRO MSI MEGA 180 Deluxe Cooler Master CM Media 250 Which displays can be handled by MediaPortal ? By the Way, would'nt it be nice with a forum for user's comments on cabinets/boxes/barebones. We could use the manufacturer and model as topic. Rgds, Rene [/QUOTE]
