How much, roughly, to build a HTPC?

[Woden]

As title really? I'm ditching Virgin media, don't use the phone and all the channels we watch are on FAR satellite. So I'm going to choose a new ISP (Vodafone looks good at £28 for 76 down, 20 up).

I can plug the satellite cable direct into my tv and although ores not Freesat, it gets tons of channels and grabs a tv guide over wifi. But there's no PVR facilities.

So I'm thinking a small/silent HTPC to run as a PVR (right kodi add-ons can do this). Plex, and maybe Steam to stream from my main PC.

How much am I looking at here? Don't want to spend too much. Van always use the tv satellite tuner and streaming apps on the PS4.

If your going to stream from your main PC and not actually keep the files on the unit itself then why not just get an Android box and slap Kodi and Plex on it? If you did want local storage you could just plug in an external 4TB HDD. Probably a much cheaper option overall.

I'd only stream steam games.

Massive reason I'm not going for an android box is I will want a DVB-S tuner.
