[QUOTE="10splaya22, post: 14706185, member: 135572"] Right now I'm using my 5 year old laptop and using it to play movies from the harddrive and displaying it on the TV (60" Vizio smart TV). Im connecting it using VGA and using a headphone jack on the computer for sound which goes to my receiver. I just bought a new receiver (Denon AVRS500BT) and will buy some speakers off craigslist (Klipsch HD Theater Speakers) and would like to upgrade my computer now. My wants are: -HDMI out to maintain surround sound and audio and video quality. -Large harddrive (1 TB or more) to store all the movies I currently have. -Can handle audio and video needs for movies easily -Web browsing for the rest of the time I'm not watching movies So I don't think I need a powerful computer at all but would like it to be a smaller size like [URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811163205&cm_re=silverstone-_-11-163-205-_-Product"]THIS[/URL]. I would also like to buy a computer off the shelf instead of building one but if it will be that much better than I'm not completely opposed to that. I just think with my requirements I could buy one but would like to see what everyone's recommendations are. I don't need anything fancy or super fast. [/QUOTE]
