Over the years I've built a number of PC's for my own use as upgrades. It just occurred to me that, as long as its not connected to the internet, I could just use some of those old parts from previous builds and old operating systems to build a new home theater PC. I wouldn't have to buy a new Windows license since I already did that with the older version of Windows that I'd be using in the new HTPC build. As long as VLC media player still works with an older version of Windows, I should be set. It also helps that I never throw anything away, so it's just a matter of finding the old boards, cards, discs & power supplies and put it all together. Got my next project.

Congratulations on your new silent PC Chris! IMO, any computer related video should have power consumption shown like @17:45 as those of us who have access to electricity on-demand have taken it for granted. I made a conscious decision to reduce my power consumption for compute tasks couple of years back. Since then, I conduct most of my work with low power PCs, ARM SBCs, Gaming on console and anything which needs large compute power I do it on cloud run by very efficient data-centers.

The board was only selling for £65 on Ebyer at that time but I have noticed the price has now at least doubled. Irrespective of that, they still make a very formidable little PC for basic tasks at an affordable price. I enjoyed the review.

Thanks for this great two part build and analysis. I was looking forward to building this or something very similar since I wasn't satisfied with using a Pi as a media player for my TV. I was about to pull the trigger on this project, but remembered I was in the market for a Mac to start doing some iOS development and found a pretty cheap Mac Mini that will allow suffice for that purpose, but will spend most of its life as a media center for my TV. Obviously it's a Mac so when it inevitably dies and I can't replace its components, I'll use these videos to build my next media machine ;)

I've experimented with Linux on Macs now for 20 years with decent results. If you like the MacOS experience, I recommend ElementaryOS. It's not exactly like MacOS but it's similar and doesn't try to be "just like Windows" like so many other Linux distributions try. It has one of the best file browsers available (Pantheon) the music jukebox is very much like early iTunes (before it got so bloated) and the video player is in many ways better than VLC.

Chris, I realise that this vid isnt about the Pi 4 but its all 'small form factor computing' and I just wanted to thank you for your guidance re overclocking the Pi 4. I dont have the Ice Tower - I'm using the Argon case with the fan permanently on, and I'm perfectly happy with 720p when the temp *never* exceeds 65 deg C. I did try 1080@60fps but it drops too many frames - also not sure that my cheapie 1080p Acer monitor is giving me the best possible result, but 720p is absolutely perfect - astonishing when the last Celeron laptop I owned didnt render every 720p vid I own with this level of clarity. Thanks again and keep the vids coming ! (I dont normally bother with the like button, but in your case its 100% warranted)

Hello, Chris; Thank you for all you do. REALLY great job!, thanks pal! I really appreciate you promoting linux on your channel. I hope that you will consider wiping the drive & installing MX linux on the 'silent' computer. I enjoy your videos but you always install Ubuntu. I think trying some other distros may be very educational for your viewers. Of course, if the build is strictly for your personal use I see why you would install your favorite. But if it for the channel try some other distros, please. BTW, I'm always waiting for tubers to close w/ "you can see me in the my next video". Keep up the great job! Have a GREAT day, Neighbor!

Thanks for this. This PC is indeed for personal use, so I do not intend trying other OS (at least right now!). But I have fairly recently reviewed many Linux distros on the channel -- including Linux Mint, Ubuntu, ZorinOS, OpenSUSE, Manjaro and PCLinuxOS, as well as other OS including QubesOS and NomadBSD. And other reviews will follow! :)

I greatly enjoy your videos. Thank you. a suggestion for your stack of ideas: now you've interested many of us in Linux, it would be good to know about moving data between our Windows 10 and Linux. I think you mentioned the need for care in formatting USB flash drives used for this.

Love your content, haha am using i9 with 3090rtx while playing vr this thing is eating watts like crazy, thats why i ended up buying a AC1-Z, its zotac nano fanless mini pc thats comes with Celeron J4125 / 8gb ram . 265ssd can even run 4k videos! , wow such a huge difference in power consumption. to be honest those mini fanless pc are a must, cuz they r so low in power consumption lets you relax n edit your documents without being worry about ur electrical bill ;)

Dear Chris, Thanks for sharing your adventures. They are great fun to watch. Re-using the old housing [part1] seemed daft. You noted that similar but more modern & up-to-date-versions are available at an affordable price. Yet you're using the old ones that don't have usb3 ports and other modern conveniences. Building a NEW machine and 'making do' don't add up; Not at that price-level, IMHO. Regards, Willem

Bonjour, Congratulations on your new setup and thank you for showing it to us. I have a similar processor on my laptop and it is really sufficient. On this PC I do among other things CAD on FreeCAD 0.19. N.B. You can also press Ctrl + L to initialize (clear) the terminal. --- Bonjour, Félicitations pour votre nouvelle configuration et merci de nous la montrer. J'ai un processeur similaire sur mon ordinateur portable et c'est vraiment suffisant. Sur ce PC je fais entre autres de la CAO sur FreeCAD 0.19. N.B. Vous pouvez également appuyer sur Ctrl + L pour initialiser le terminal.
