Hi All,

Been lurking for sometime so go easy on me please :eek:

I'm trying to spec a build that will enable me to run XBMC and will be able to link to my NAS. There wont be any game playing, surfing, officey / business work done on it at all. Am in right in thinking i need the following:

Case
Motherboard
Memory
PSU
SSD

Have i missed anything?

I have osme other requirements as well, such as:

the ability to play ripped blu-rays without any slowdown etc
navigation around xbmc would also be swift and painless
would like it to be in a small and quiet in a "front room under the tele kind of way"
Energy efficiency would be good also to reduce those bills
Finally and most importantly.... Cheap. What is the bare minimum that you think i will be able to get away with?

Appreciate you views guys and any help or guidance you can offer.

Thanks
