Alright so I'm going to build another desktop...mainly for websurfing and media center stuff. Heres what I picked out so far:


SAMSUNG 20X DVD±R DVD Burner Black SATA Model SH-S203B $27.99



Thermaltake LANBOX Lite VF6000BWS Computer Case $89.99

MSI RX2400PRO-TD256EH Radeon HD 2400PRO Support up to 512M(256MB onboard) 64-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready Video Card $10.00 Mail-in Rebate $39.99

Hard drive I already have as well as the OS (Vista Ultimate 64bit) but just wondering if theres any better solutions? Also any heatsink recommendations for a SSF case? Or a better SSF case?

You can save $20 by going with this cheaper but still decent PSU:
Silverstone ST400 400W PSU - $50

If you're looking for 80+ efficiency:
Antec Earthwatts EA380 380W PSU - $45

You can also save $40 by going with this SFF case:
Ultra Microfly mATX Case - $40

Oh and are you recording any SD or HD video?

SD.

I would prefer to keep the PSU modular for a small space.

Is the ultra better than the lan box?

 

[Dangman]

To be honest, I don't know. You might want to hit up the SFF forum for more info. I just like the Ultra better since the PSU isn't over the mobo.
