Will this work? Powerful and quiet HTPC/gaming pc
Posted: Mon May 10, 2010 5:59 am
Hello everyone,
On the basis of recommendations found on spcr and at hardforums, I've selected the below components for my HTPC PC.
The HTPC will be connected to a 40" HD TV and a QNAP NAS server (located in another room). My goals are:
* To create a quiet HTPC that can play blue-ray discs and HD .MKV files from my NAS.
* Be able to play pc-games smoothly on the TV (e.g. star craft 2, fallout, civilization).
Do you guys think the below setup would work together?
Case: Silverstone Grandia GD05
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3
CPU: Intel i3 3,06 gHz
HDD/SSD: Kingston SSDNow V Series V GEN 2 128GB
GPU:Sapphire Radeon HD 5850
Blue-ray drive: LITEON iHOS104
CPU-fan: Scythe Big Shuriken
PSU: Nexus NX-5000 Silent PSU
Thanks a lot in advance! Any comments are welcomed.
Best,
Peter
