Ok, I went and checked out the Aria case and, well, no. I think I'm
going to spring the little bit extra for the coolermaster, afterall.
Thanks to whomever suggested that! I haven't seen it in person yet,
but I think it will fit better with what I have in mind (lives in the
living room, room for extra HDs).
I'm also pretty much set on the Shuttle MN32N motherboard, having not
heard anything bad from anyone here. I wish I could get something
with onboard tv-out and firewire, but those two options seem to be at
odds with each other.
So, is anyone using this particular combination? Any
suggestions/caveats? CPU/Heatsinc/fan suggestions? Recommendation on
a quiet power supply able to drive this setup with 2 PVR250s and up
to 3 HDs? I was thinking maybe a "ZALMAN ZM300B-APS 300W POWER
SUPPLY ACTIVE PFC"
Anyone offer some advice on a good AGP video card that meets the following?
- must support TV-out and S-Video
- must not have a fan (to keep system quiet)
- supporting DVI as well would be a plus but not required
This is only for Myth, so no 3d gaming requirements.
I think I'm very close and itching to rack up the visa! Thanks in
advance for any advice!
