After quite a bit of deliberation I've come to the conclusion that I might need a HTPC.
It will mainly be used for storage and playback of movies, pics and music, and with browsing the internet etc. I doubt I will use it for gaming as I have a PS4.
From what I've read it would be cheaper to build one myself rather than buy something prebuilt.
I wouldnt mind buying a second hand one, or second hand parts, but there doesnt seem to be too many for sale.
I've done a bit of research and this is what I have come up with:
Case - Silverstone Lascala - $150
LC17
LC10
I3 4160 - $165
Asus H97 Plus - $166
Kingston 2x2GB - $84
SSD - $90
Corsair PSU - $90
Tv Tuner - $167
Wifi - $50
I have Windows 7 OS
(Will add additional hard drives later on)
Is there Anything I've missed?
It's a bit more money than I would like to spend, and I'm not sure the other half would approve.
Please let me know your thoughts, and if you think anything should be changed.
Thanks
