Get a decent case / cooling fans / disks / CPU for the backend and stick it well out of the way where no-one will ever see it or hear it and let it do the grunt work. Get something small, quite, pretty, sleek and specific to just the FE role that can sit under the TV.

(I'm only half joking but someone will no doubt comment on the earthing issues so be aware of that potential complexity. Wonder if anyone on the list is running FE's over WiFi G/N/AC that can comment on wireless FE performance, everything I've got is on wired gigabit Ethernet.).

Hey, I ran a fiber optic cable to my next door neighbor when I was in
the middle east. :)
Still have the fiber in my storage unit.
