Hello all!
Hoping for a little advice, I'm looking to build a PC for the rents', which will primairly stream media (but also to be used as an office PC).
As such I'm looking for the following from the components,
Lots of SATAII ports
Ideally 1GB lan, but 100Mbps would be fine
Strong enough to run W7, stream media and run the usual office lark and playback 1080p (shouldn't be too hard!)
HDMI/DVI output with HDCP in the event it gets used as a media PC at some point
Not bothered about optical output as I doubt it'd ever be used, but a plus.
If anyone wants to go the whole nine yards, then welcome to spec out a whole machine (case,PSU,mobo,cpu,ram)
Name of the game is cheap, but known makes for reliability - I'm an Asus fanboy too, so extra points scored for an Asus mobo!
Thanks!
Sean
