Hey guys i just ordered parts for my low cost low power media server/HTPC and i was wondering if you had any advise on what version of linux to use or any other thoughts before i delve into it all.
If you are wondering on what parts i have ordered,
CPU = E1200
Motherboard = XFX Nforce 610i cheap as chips
Case = Coolermaster Elite RC 331(i know it aint too pretty but its cheap @ £25 today only)
HDD = Samsung Spinpoint F1
Keyboard/Mouse = Keysonic wireless
things i already have to use for it
WD 320GB caviar
Maxtor 250 GB
Nvidia 6200TC (so i can connect to the CRT television via composite)
1GB 667 corsiar (will get another GB next time im payed)
Im not to worried about full 1080p at the moment which is why i didnt go for an AMD solution, just being able to play basic divx vids is enough.
