how much money did you get all the parts

[krillelille]

At the time i gave about 4500 swedish kronor for all the parts.

Hi,

I am going to start my first ild in the next few days using this case and the AMD platform,

i could use any addvice.

Do you have any?

thanks.

Well the advice i could give is to see over the air flow in the htpc. Use a CPU with a low energy consumption, reduces heat. Also try to get a fanless and small gfx since heat is your worst enemy in a htpc case. I would reccomend the HD series from ATI since they have no fan so lower energy consumption and dont get that heated. Use only rounded ide cables and try to bundle the cables as much as you can to increase air flow. what i could think of as most essential :)
