Default HTPC Project Complete!! Woot!!
So, I finally completed my HTPC! Ah man, do I ever love it.

Specs:

Athlon64 X2 5400+ BE
Foxconn M61PMV
4GB G.Skill DDR2-800
ATi HD3450 w/ HDMI out
250GB Seagate 7200.10
Sony BD-ROM
Corsair 400CX PSU
Creative X-Fi XtremeGamer
Logitech Z5500 5.1
Sharp 32" 720p LCD TV
Windows Vista Ultimate

I've already gotten CyberLink PowerDVD 8 Ultra for BluRay playback, and it seems to work great! I've loaded an N64 Emulator, and with fullscreen playback and full AA and AF, it's great! NetFlix Instant movies are great, though not played back in HD. And it's great for surfing internuts while laying in bed.

HAHA thats the same KB/Mouse I use on my HTPC, cheap but decent range! Enjoy the goodness that is owning an HTPC, my wife and I are getting ready to completely get rid of our cable box in lieu of our HTPC. When we do that it will be the soul source in our home theater, outside of an XM tuner.

Utterly silent. CPU fan is significantly louder, even when running at low speeds.
