Hi All
Looking to build my first Media Centre this year.
Primarily it would be used for my library of movie and tv shows but I would also like to runup steam in the big picture mode and get some light co-op gaming with the Mrs. Nothing hardcore, along the lines of the Lego series of gaming.
Found a build here http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/rmp_sg_whirlpoolpcs_htpc (the Bang for Buck) which I think is pretty spot on with what I want. I've thought to upgrade the CPU to a higher level Trinity or i3 though.
I've build a few gaming machines in the past and must admit I've had no experience with i3 and the Trinity cores. So very keen to hear any recommendations.
Cheers!
