Also thinking of building one
OK, so I'm market for build a machine I can use as entertainment center with my LCD HD TV.
1. Sofware is easy (Windows Vista Home Premium) But looking for machine hardware for about $500 budget. AMD Quad Core with 4 gig Ram to start with. Don't know which brand of RAM and series of AMD Quad Code to get though. Anyone wants to help? |

mATX / small form factor?
32 or 64 bit? AMD Phenom X4???? not sure why you want an expensive 4core processor in a media pc, can u explain? the budget is tight enough without wasting on an AMD quad IMHO. |

"Fair enough"
What do you recommend for that budget? PS I'm also looking for under $100 wireless keyboard and mouse. That's out side 500 budget. |

I would probably go for an intel core 2 duo if your going to do alot of media encoding. I would also consider going with a Mini ITX setup if you don't want a big loud PC sitting around.

DD there is a DF:BHD for MAC don't know you known this or not.
found out on Novalogic.com support area listing say all who has this version need to seek a 3rd part support they handle it. Quote:
anyways hope your new system turn out super great when you build it and many game hours to play with.
