Hi all, I'm currently thinking about building a HTPC and would like some advice.
So far, the case I like is http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-059-AK&groupid=2362&catid=2279 and I'm looking at an AM1 motherboard with http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-377-AM&groupid=701&catid=1967 processor.
Question 1 is will this and it's heatsink fit in the case?
I'm also trying to decide between a standard 500Gb 2.5 disk and a Kingston 120Gb ssd. The system will be running windows 7, Plex media server for the kids at Uni and Kodi for the TV it will be placed under. The media will live on a WD MyCloud drive connected to the HTPC with gigabit lan.
Question 2 is will 120Gb ssd be big enough for windows 7, Plex server and Kodi? I will probably be running some sort of USB tuner for TV recording from freeview.
