Since this is only going to be a PVR I should probably spend the money on hard drive, good TV tuner card and cable TV

Didn't you jump into one of those Hauppauge deals?

why spend more? save more for a hard drive to store your recorded playboy channel ... woops I mean discovery channel episodes, something

Anyone know what motherboard this is?

Very nice find there JohnDoh. I had looked @ this combo but never realized that it was an mATX board. :beer:

I've already got my board for this build though & a 3000+ amd64 proc. refrub from newegg for $125.

But would be an excellent choice for this case indeed! Good job.

I know this might be the wrong forum for such questions. If so, sorry.

But, does anyone know if you can use regular height PCI/ AGP Cards in this case? If so I'm sold.

Thanks In Advance for the help

Absolutely. Accepts full height cards with no problem.

RossMAN: no problem

alm99: the motherboard is a PC Chips http://www.pcchips.com.tw/PCCWeb/Produc...il.aspx?DetailID=283&MenuID=24&LanID=0
PCchips make decent cheap motherboards, there an ECS company, ECS is the worlds largest PCB motherboard maker, you buy some high end DFI or ABIT and the PCB is probably made by them

yeah accepts full height cards no prob. its bigger then a normal small form factor pc, yet reasonable enough 2 put on the desktop, I wish I had the use for one, Id get one

Thanks, looks like no front firewire connectors. Anyone know how to get optical out on this? It has a SPDIF header. How is the sound?

I built a HPTC using this case last summer. I think I paid just over $100, and it was worth every penny. See my article here with many pics.

This case is still on sale though the penny shipping is long over.

The $30 rebate ends today & the mobo combo that JohnDoh listed above has droped by $10.

Today is the last day for this case @ this price.
