Hi Guys,
I've been reading for a while now and im having a difficult time trying to pick out what i need. I hope you guys can help me out.
Im mainly using the HTPC to play 1080p & 3D movies (mostly .mkv's) from my external hard drives. Im also going to stream Netflix and Hulu. Also, since i now know i can use emulators with XBMC, I might use it to play some old sega dreamcast titles as well but nothing top of the line. I've had a Boxee Box for a while now and im handing that down to my sister.
I currently have:
Case: Raidmax ATX626BP mATX Case
SSD: SanDisk 64GB SATA III Solid State Drive (SSD): SDSSDP-064G-G25
Ram: DDR3 8GB 1333MHz PATRIOT
I need help picking a motherboard and cpu that will support the SSD & Ram that i currently have. Hopefully something that doesnt require a video card. I hope someone can help me out please.
Im getting my things from Frys Electronics since i have gift cards so im limited to this store only . I have narrowed it down to these. Thank you guys in advance!
Motherboards to pick from: Fry's Electronics
