OK Just finished ordering the finial parts and wanted peoples views on this system for MCE 2005

Silver stone SST-LC03
MSI MB
2.0Ghz Celeron Chip 487
1gb (2x 512mb) Ram PC2700
GF 6200 G/C
1x 80GB Weston Digital SATA
1x 200GB Weston Digital IDE
2x Black Gold MCE Digital Freeview Cards
DVD Drive


There's been a few budget issues so things like MB etc could be updated at later date but should get the system running

Gonna run sweet. Like the case ;).

I've allways wanted a HTPC/Media Centre Computer, I may build on in the near future, because it seems the way to go. There taking over DVD-Players very slowly, but surely.

Hope you have a good time with it Dave.

Get some pics up of the build and the setup if possible :).

OK Guys, media center is now complete

I decided to go with a 24" tft instead of the plasma as i think it will be more practical.
