Hello,
I am looking at building my first HTPC. (efficient and low consumption)
I must admit; I am not really knowledgeable on all the pieces needed and how they all fit. I have been reading tons of information online.
I am looking for a HTPC that would stream HD (720p and 1080p) content that is downloaded. The HTPC would be running a bit torrent client in either Windows or Linux. (If possible this would replace my file server)
I have been looking at the Zotac IonITX F-E http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813500036&Tpk=ZOTAC%20IONITX-F-E.
Is the ASUS AT5IONT better?
Is there another mobo/cpu combine that would be better.
Any case recommendations with power supply?
Budget $400-$500
Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I don't need a TV Tuner or Blueray DVD.
