Another project that I had just completed for a friend. The photos are not as good as expected, ( photo taken using iPhone … no flash and this is the result…” sigh”… ). A friend recently came over to have some soccer game … and are amazed with what a computer can do beyond just ordinary office task. So he decided to have one of his own system that can play the soccer game ( Pro Evolution 2010 ) and at the meantime serving multimedia files when needed. And all of this task to be displayed with his LCD TV. A total Home Media Center…
Below are the spec’s :-
- Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8Ghz (E7400 Wolfdale).
- Gigabyte motherboard.
- Samsung DVD writer.
- 2Gb DDR II memory RAM.
- 320Gb Sata HDD.
- Apacer card reader.
- Nvidia GT220 Graphic with 1Gb DDR III ram.
- Htpc multimedia casing.
- Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse.
- LCD TV.
- HDMI cable.
- 2.1 speaker system.
- Joystick controller.
- Windows 7 Ultimate – ( Windows Media Center with plug-in and add-on ).
- Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 ( Blend nicely into Media Center start menu strip ).
After all this is not the highest spec I ever build but the system is more than enough for him to play games, enjoying multimedia files and doing regular daily computing. There’s a lot of room for upgrade in the future like adding extra memory RAM , HDD, TV card, Blue-Ray player and etc.
