Ok, I just bought the case from Directron, seemed like an awesome deal once I checked other websites like Newegg and ZipZoomFly.
Now for the next questions...
I'd like some suggestions on good motherboards. In the past I've used MSI and Biostar, but for this HTPC project, I don't want to overlook anything. I've been searching Newegg and other websites and just can't decide. I'm planning on a Socket 939 setup for now, but am open to any feedback.
I just purchased the D4 from Directron which comes with two silent fans and Silent 350 CPU.
http://www.directron.com/x232.html I think the sale price is pretty good.
I'm a little confused on all the various chipsets available (6100, 6150, nforce4, etc.) I assume this is just the onboard video that comes with the motherboard? I plan on getting at least an Nvidia 6600GT or higher, so I suppose the onboard video doesn't apply?
Also, I plan on using SPDIF out to my Denon 2805 AVR. Is it best just to find a motherboard with SPDIF out, or actually get a seperate sound card?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Randy
