[QUOTE="cecolon, post: 337683, member: 19927"] Hi! I am going to build a HTPC from the ground of, and I am starting with the case. I am concidering the two mentioned in the title: [url=http://www.antec.com/ec/productDetails.php?ProdID=08760]Antec Fusion Remote[/url] [url=http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1113]MSI Media Live[/url] As far as I can see, both have an integrated LCD display, IR sensor and remote control. MSI also have music control buttons (play/pause/next etc), and Antec does have a volume knob. This seems good - but it's important that they work as they should: [list] [*]Remote: Good buttons, good range, build quality [*]LCD: Good and readable characters [*]All: Compatible with different software (probably Media Portal, but should also support others) [*]All: Not dependent on ugly bloatware [*]Buttons/volume knob should also work. [*]Good support software/drivers [/list] Can anyone give me pointers about the quality of the different cases regarding these points? I also appreciate feedback about the two cases regarding other aspects related to HTPC (build quality, noise, compability, etc etc) :) [/QUOTE]
