I spent the weekend having a look around at building a completely fanless PC running Linux for web browsing, instant messaging and playing SD video.
Is there a way I could build a completely fanless system for around £200? Can be over but not by much please =]
I love the look of this build: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18360592 however, it would come out at over £300!
I already have some DDR3 Dominator RAM lying around if that would fit. (2x 4GB sticks) And a 160GB hard drive (full size) but I'd prefer SSD or flash memory to be used, possibly I could just use a microSD card in a usb adapter (I already have a 16GB Samsung Class 10 MicroSDHC card and a relevant adapter) to keep the cost down?
Any help would be appreciated!
