Hey guys a few days ago I told my mom about HTPC's and she got all excited and told me to build one. I have been doing research on them and this is what I have come up with so far.

Parts that I am not too sure about:
DVD drive: I know that this drive is good but I am afraid it will be too loud. Anyone have a suggestion on a good quiet DVD drive?
TV Tuner: I don't know what to look for in a good tv tuner. We are going to have direct tv with a hi def television in the next few months so I want to be able to do HD, as well as record television shows.
Sound Card:I like the specs and reviews of the one I have on the list, but I'm not sure if I'm over paying.
Remote: A lot of people have said just the MCE remote will work just fine, but I dunno
Any advice you guys could give would be great.
Thanks
