My New HTPC

[SuperShermanTanker]

My new HTPC that has a Inwin ITX case, 250 watt Solid Gear PSU, AMD 5350 2.05ghz quad core AM1 Socket APU, ASROCK AM1B-ITX motherboard, 4gb of Avexir Budget Series 1600mhz DDR3 RAM, 1tb 7200rpm Toshiba HDD, and a Roswill 802.11n wifi card.

The most expensive thing there was probably the case. Looks great, probably runs a dream too! 

 

Do you use a server to feed the HTPC, or are you storing media on this unit? If no, then maybe a small 120, or 250GB SSD would have been good. Other than that, something I'd have in a heartbeat!

I'm actually using it as bolth a HTPC and a media server with KODI running in the forground as the main software to watch movies on the machine and PLEX running in the background as a meda server to stream to my Laptop, Gaming Desktop, and iPhone. Also the machine isn't running 24/7 it's only when I need it and if I do leave it on I turn it off at night.
