CPU, mobo, RAM, GPU, HDD, PSU, case, and don't forget cooling. There's also not the biggest selection out there for HTPC cases.

If you went mini ITX, the processor is usually already installed as they use non-desktop cpus i think. So that is a 2-in-1 combo right there. They also use a lot less power than running a full desktop cpu and mobo.

We can give you some help, but at least I'm not going to hold your hand. If you're going to do this, start doing some reading because if anything happens, you only have yourself to answer to. Do some research into what you need, hardware requirements, power requirements. Need to do your own homework.


Im not asking for a walk in the park here. Im asking for someone to guide me.

Hit me up when I'm free on AIM and we can have a 1-on-1 and discuss parts for an HTPC or Media PC that will fit your needs. It's too hard for me to get time to give you the level of support that you may need from this thread right now. 45+ hours at work is keeping me away from the forum more than I'd like.
