James Quintin over at we got served one of my daily stops for WHS news has started a series of posts about his “ultimate HTPC build” and thought I’d share it.

The first post James goes over what his goals are, what he expects out of the system and what he plans on doing with the system. The second post James goes over his hardware choices for his HTPC build and how he set it up, as well as shares a few photos of the build.

Note that James is located across the pond (UK) and thus has different tuner card requirements than what we have here in the states, but all in all, the build is quite good, and looks to be a solid performing HD HTPC.

So head on over to we got served and check out James’ build.
