I currently have a HP Microserver that in the process of setting up to be a media centre/NAS etc however now I am thinking to keep it as a NAS and make a separate HTPC/Game machine.

Currently have a E6400, 4Gb RAM, 285GTX, some HDDs, 520W Corsair PSU and Gigabyte DS3-P so all about 3 years old all wrapped in a Lian-Li PC7B case.

Now I want to be able to do some decent living room gaming hooked up to my 50" plasma.

So do I find a desktop style case to fit it all into, or do I go with a new build? If so AMD/Intel/nVidia?

Any advice is appricated. Games wise, it will be WoW, CoDMW, Sim City few others, my 285 has no issues running these games are 160x1200.

Budget not stupid but not cheap ass

Cheers

Kimbie
