I've got a ton of downloaded stuff on my laptop I'd really like to play through my TV, But my laptop only has VGA out, can't remember what inputs my TV has but basically I can't find a cable that can connect the two.
So, i wanna throw together a mini PC just for playing Movies, TV shows, music etc from.
I had a quick look at cases and want to use something like this:
http://www.xcase.co.uk/X-Case-Atomic-Cube-Black-With-Psu-p/xc-atomic-cubebk.htm
Or similar.
Just wondering if anybody can see any problems with this case? I've noticed some cases mention they can take "full size cards", but this one says nothing. Can anybody tell?
On the subject of full size cards, I'm guessing full size means the size of a PC card.
As for spec, it doesn't have to be anything epic, just good graphics with a HDMI out. Can anybody point me in the direction of good value components? I don't wanna spend a shedload on this.
I'll need:
PSU (Included with that case)
Motherboard
Graphics card
Sound card
Hard drive
Network card (if there's space, I may aswell throw one in and connect it to the network for easy file transfers)
That's it right? Don't need a disc drive, Just play DVDs through the xbox
