• Did some upgrades and now I have this setup surplus:

    • 2.1 Aiwa UZ-US301 speakers (Also has a USB input)

    and the HTPC (Home Theatre PC) which spec's are:

    • Silverstone Grandia GD08 case (Fully reinforced Alu case which is designed to stack with standard size HiFi equipment)
    • Intel Pentium E5300 (2M Cache, 2.60 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
    • MSI P7N SLI Platinum Motherboard (all the connections you'll need inc. S/PDIF Audio)
    • Nvidea 8400 GS (HDMI, DVI & VGA output)
    • 8gb of Crucial DDR2 6400 RAM
    • Seagate 250gb Hard drive
    • OCZ StealthXstream II OCZ500SXS2 500W PSU
    • DVD Writer
    • USB expander card inc. Bluetooth adapter
    • Freshly installed & activated copy of Windows 7 PRO X64 (updated to the point where you can choose to upgrade to Windows 10 or go for W7 SP1)

    Plays 1080 content perfectly and if you upgrade the speakers you can use the S/PDIF connection to get 5.1 Dolby Digital Audio. We mostly used it for films etc which it was perfect for but it worked well as a Steam Streaming box also.
    I used to run Kodi on it, but thats your choice. I will throw in an official Windows Media Centre Remote and USB receiver, you just need a keyboard/mouse (I can recommend this) and HDMI cable and you're all set.

    computer and speakers are yours for £50

    Collection from N19, Any questions just ask.
