HTPC systems become more common as technology advances. The need to have a personalized system in the comfort of your own living is quite a commodity. The Silverstone case this customer chose is very sleek looking, and will easily fit with any in-home stereos in an entertainment center. The fan sizes, and locations will also allow low-noise function, with the combination of the Decathlon power supply which is also known for quiet operation. The true value to knowing hardware is where to draw the line between needed performance, and cost. Choosing the i3-540 dual-core process shows this end-user understands that sometimes purchasing less is more. An HTPC will not require an immense amount of processing power, so it will certainly do the job well. The Intel motherboard will accommodate upgrades just like any other motherboard, and the H55 chipset is known to be quite compatible with a majority of hardware. The 4GB of 1333MHz DDR3 RAM is the perfect balance between the processor speed, and graphics card. The ATI HD 5770 will produce great visual quality for movies, while allowing the options to play current demanding games without a slow down. The 750GB of capacity will last any HTPC end-user a while, between music, movies, and miscellaneous data. What would any HTPC be without blue ray reading capabilities? Again, another characteristic this customer recognized and took full advantage of. The same could easily be said for Windows 7, especially with all of the new Media Center features to make your HTPC experience better than ever before! The fact that an HTPC is becoming more common only excites enthusiasts more, and gives manufacturers a reason to continue the innovations that will drive all media centers to higher levels.
