It's been a while since I've seen a review or build log for some HTPC stuff, and I've been considering a new HTPC build for a while now using some spare parts. My main concern is keeping the machine quiet and getting proper resolution for video on my TV (Infocus 61md10 -- a 61" DLP). The TV does not support a DVI connection, and only one HDMI, so I'm going to have to go through a switch box or similar to change that input (my DirectTV goes in to the HDMI at present). Audio should go out to my Denon system for the THX/Dolby and will be handled by the onboard sound (DFI SLi-DR board).
What I'm looking for now is a recommendation on a video card. I have a pair of old 6800 cards that I could do a SLI config on, but I think that's overkill and I really don't want to add more fans. I'm trying to keep moving parts to minimum to reduce overall noise. Any suggestions? |
