Hi folks, my pc is about to go, and i'm stuck between 2 choices:-
#1
Build a new rig
#2
Build a quiet server(24/7 media streaming, silent etc)
Buy a laptop.
I dont game much anymore, and what I do is on the ps3/360, so i am swaying for the latter.
I am however undecided between going for a low power efficient server, and a beefy laptop, or do I get say the UL30A, as highly reccomended on this forum, and an efficient server with a beefier CPU, which I can remote into as of when required?
If so, I dont need a new case, as I'm sure my Thermaltake Soprano will do, and I would like at least 2TB of storage. What kind of build/combo would you reccomend?
P.S I dont have an exact budget, but i'm not going to go totally mad if the extra power is not required(so no 1000W psui's etc).
