I've been out of the new hardware buying game for what seems like forever (18 months) and have not paid enough attention to the new products....so I thought I would bring my inquiry to the experts here.
I'm building a Home Theater PC and have a small case to work with. I'm stuck looking for a MicroATX board and chip, but I'm not sure which chip to go with. I'd like to get something that runs as cool as possible, as H2O cooling is not an option, and I'd like to use as few fans as possible with this project.
What's the coolest running chip these days for a reasonable price? Bartons? P4c? A64? And am I going to be able to find a good MicroATX board for all of these?
Thanks!!!
