3aces Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 amd 1800 should be made into HTPC, seems logical, it also doesnt need to be clocked a 3GHz shoud be fine around 2-2.2GHz, all you really need is a decent HTPC casetry this Case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowarez Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 thnx i was thinking of that since it had alot of power to work through anythign, does anyone know how to add those RCa ports to these HTPCs like the hush multimedia pcs? do i need to have a certin type of soundcard or is their a add-in i can put on it so i can connect the sound form the htpc to my home entertainment system? also the a64 3200+ msi ssytem would it be wise to turn it into a IAS server and have my network run through that>? or just let my gmaing router handle that? and just throw few 500s into it and make it a 1U server i the corner of the room? i have the dlink wireless media center ($399) so i was thinkign of putting a storage area for fiels in one sys and the other a htpc for recording tv and what not, ill get into that later when i get the case, thnx for pointing me towards that one i was looking at a ntec minute or soemthign a tiny one but i think that will match most of the hardware out in the Entertainemt room, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
