What's in your system? - keithskaggs - 2008-06-22

I did not see a thread for this so I thought it might help people out if we lay down some component specs for systems that work with the current version of XBMCPC.

Anyway here is an overview of my working system:

Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H Ver 1.0
Chipset - NVIDIA GeForce 7100 / NVIDIA nForce 630i
BIOS Version/Date - Award Software International, Inc. F5, 1/16/2008
Processor - Intel P4, 3 Ghz
Total Physical Memory - 2,048.00 MB
OS - Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 Build 2600
System HD - 120 GB SATA II
Backup HD - 80 GB SATA II (using Acronis True Image Home 11)
DVD+-RW - 16X SATA
Video - Onboard HDMI
Audio - HD over HDMI
LAN - Onboard 10/100/1000 Mb
PS - 500 Watt 24 pin
Remote - Original XBox DVD with hacked XBox IR to USB (using Remote XBMC 1.5)
Keyboard - 2.4 Ghz Wireless with trackball

Works with all verions of XBMCPC to date. Very quiet, in black desktop case that I added some sound proofing to. Installed an ultra quiet CPU fan, and use the provided Gigabyte Easy Tune to run the fan at 20%. Cpu temp is pretty steady at 42C. Have autologon running and Startup Delayer so system takes about 1:30 to boot and automatically runs XBMCPC. Also have K-Lite codec pack installed and AVG Free. No other software installed, wanted to keep it really clean. Have played some 720p x264 content but no 1080i or 1080p. No complaints about 720p, it plays perfectly smooth.
