SilverStone LC17B (Black) Aluminum Front & SECC Body Desktop case (w/o PSU)

£58 inc.

Need IR remote & receiver, about £20.
Does it take a normal size PSU? Have a 550W one I would like to use, Would also be a good idea to use the MCE remote and receiver?

It takes standard size ATX PSU by the look of it.

As for remote control, just bung the dongle in spare USB port.

If you're building a HTPC you need remote control.
Well I have my hardware:

X1900XTX 512MB
X2 3800+
160GB HDD x 2, 120GB x1
1GB PC4200 Ram

Just need the case, remote, and such, gonna use it for movies, music, tv, arcade like games and such :D
 
Ditch those three hard drives, and have one big one (noise and heat reduction)
Ditch ATI X1900XT for ATI X300 -passive, less heat and zero noise.

Purely from HTPC viewpoint of course.
