HTPC Spec advice

[Leodido]

I've been thinking about making an HTPC for our home for a few years now and decided it's finally time to get on it.

I don't know a lot about HTPC so I need your help. I'd like it to be able to work as a file server/XBMC station.

• No high end gaming (already have a PC for this) Only emulators
• Low noise
• Enough drive space
• HDMI connectivity
• Wireless
• Decent CPU that can handle HD videos

I'm not looking to spend too much but I guess around 400£ would do.
I hope this is enough info to get help! Thanks in advance.
