I've wanted to do this for years. I never got around to researching it in earnest, but I do know that they sell hdmi>cat>hdmi:

I have never heard of running powerline in the middle of that, but once...
This is the lowest price I've seen on the 4tb WD Green, if that's what you specifically want, so it's a hot deal for those people. As mentioned, it is not the hottest deal at price per TB. But none of this conversation is nearly as troubling as funboy's green penis. The fact that he considers...
1. Assuming you have DHCP enabled (which probably is, by default), the router will assign individual IP addresses for each device, including those connecting through the switch and the powerline. Each device in the home network (LAN) will have its own IP address. For the internet connection...
This really varies. In my case, I use a "500mbps" powerline to connect across a large house and down one floor, and I get a much more reliable connection than wifi to stream plex movies. Unfortunately, I get nowhere near the expected speeds (about 13mbps) and I can't figure out why - I have...
8.1. Easily tweaked to keep the Start menu and go straight to desktop, if you prefer the Win7 feel (like most of us do). Under the hood, it's the best and the latest...other than Linux Mint. :)
I just found the Anandtech article on this card. It looks like it goes up in the 80's even with the fan, so if I stay under 80 I'm thinking I'm solid.
Okay, back to my Fleetwood Mac video now. "Listen to wind blow....watch the sunrise..." :)
I have a Radeon 6570 whose fan is making too much noise, used in an htpc. I removed the fan and left the heatsink, and have two front fans that aren't right on it but at least blowing in the direction. For web browsing and general light use, it seems to stay around 41-43 celsius. I haven't...
Nobody is trying to restrict you from anything. I was simply pointing out that this is a forum for home theater pc's, which means most of us have our htpc's hooked up to large screens.
Do your thing. I won't bother you in this thread any further.
Well, trying to be helpful, I tried to understand what you are doing. Since you posted a question about a 27" vs 24" monitor in an htpc forum, one of the following must be true:
1. You consider a 24" screen to constitute a "home theater".
2. You don't understand what a "Home Theater PC"...
This forum is probably not the best place for your question, since you don't seem to be using your PC for a home theater. You might ask the question in PC gaming, or general hardware.
I can tell you that even for my desktop PC, I wouldn't think twice about the difference between 5ms and 2ms...
I finally broke down and switched to Windows 7 for the theater PC. Running like a breeze. The Intel integrated graphics has been the most trouble free for me in setting up bitstreaming for DTS MA and Dolby TruHD. Now I've finally got it where I want it and backed up.
Sort of a pain, and I...
