Slim tower HTPC

[Alposky]

Hello @LinusTech;

 

Watching your videos for some time, really enjoying them. Thanks for the great work keep up!

 

So, i was watching your low end graphics card video and i somehow recently build a new rig so i thought; with the remaining parts i can build a HTPC to put under the tv for videos gaming and etc.

 

pentium dual core e 5800

msi g41-p21

4gb ram

asus gt 430

10$ wireless pci card etc.

slim tower case

 

and i'm really pleasant with it which can play stream videos, play games approximately 30-35 fps. fits under tv like a game console, BUT.....WHAT THE HELL WITH THAT CUBE mITX???!?!?

I personally think slim tower is better for htpc, and also is a pain in the %&+^'. Its incredibly hard to find parts like sff power supplies, cpu coolers or decent graphics cards.

 

Can you make build/part videos for other small form factors like slim towers, darth vader helmet form factor, R2-D2 form factor pc videos?!?!? Pretty PLEASE!!!

 

Thank you for all the work you put together.

 

Sincerely Alposky.

 

 

NOTE : BTW my case is this http://www.frisby.com.tr/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=409, it says 300w power supply but as of results of tests i have done at work it could manage to work well with a 6800k+ ASUS A88XM-A which can be a great gaming htpc worth testing for although i didnt use any graphics card.

Just another reminder, this subforum is for tech news and reviews.

 

I believe you can go to build logs if you need help with a build
