Hello,
I'm looking to order the parts to my new media PC tonight and looking for any feedback/suggestions.
I'm looking for a "do-it-all" solution to play Blu Ray, HD-DVD, DVD's and record media. This is going to be used as a DVD replacement in my living room and connected to a modern TV/receiver/5.1 speaker system and I care about picture and sound quality.
Thanks
EDIT: Final list of items purchased is (my original list didn't include a video card, a sound card, a diNovo keyboard; the original processor was an E6550, and my original proposal for a heatsink was a Zalman):
