I'm slowly putting together my HTPC build and as I was gathering information I noticed a lot of people were having troubles with bluray movies and... some were not having trouble.
What I am trying to do is build a system for Netflix, Hulu, BluRay, and Internet surfing. I do want to play some league of legends, but that is pretty much it.
If I need to use a OS like Linux or something I can. Its very important that I am able to play Bluray movies on this. What do I do?
What would be a good budget GPU for League Of Legends and new Movies? On hang I currently have a 460 GTX 2GB. I figured I would sell that and get something somewhat newer, but if you guys think that will work I'll keep it.
Here is what I have -
(Currently) Gigabyte UD3
(Just Bought) AMD 8120
Mushkin 4GB Black Lines
Pioneer BluRay Drive
Seasonic Gold PSU
nMEDIAPC 6000B
I know the CPU is a bit overkill, but I got it for such a good price. What would be a good graphic card to consider? I'm not against saving money and running SLI if I need to but I am not sure if Heat will become an issue with this case. The CPU will be cooled by a Antec 60 watercooling pre-built. It actually does pretty good with how I have the fans set up.
Any suggestions on the OS and GPU would be great.
