    How many USB ports ?

    And are you running something like XBMC or Mediaportal on a Windows installation, or is it an XBMC or something else running on a stripped down Linux ?

    And also...most importantly, is it quiet ?

    My HTPC is pretty loud and I'm either going to replace the power supply, or just scrap it and get a whole new box.

    EDIT: Sorry...one other question. What graphics card ?

    I'm dual booting win 7 and a stripped down linux with mythtv. It will only come with linux though. It has about 8 ports as has a usb2 extension pci connector. I can make it as quiet as you want as I can undervolt the fans as is more than cool enough to be able to do it. The graphics card is an ati 4850 which is good for everything including games and for the right offer I could put a silent cooler on this to help make the pc alot quieter.

    could you explain to me what a htpc is ?

    Its just a pc in a slim format designed to sit under your tv with dvd players and such and can be operated from keyboard/mouse combos or remote controls. I use both on it at the moment.

    I would be looking for either an a.e.g or gas as I wouldnt have enough patience for a spring rifle :P. If better quality stuff I can always add a blueray drive and a Retail copy of windows 7 also.
    I would be interested in rifles like hk416, m4, scar, f2000, masada, l85, sr-25. Not to fussy just looking to get back into airsoft but want it to be a good quality one and depending on value can be made up with acessories or i can with win 7/blueray/cash.

    No one interested in a Swap for this?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭Shiva


    I am, but I only have a couple of bits I want to get rid of :)

    I have a TM MP5 RAS, rarely used, perfect condition, and has a guarder hopup installed.
    I can throw in 5 or 6 midcap mags too.

    I dont have a pic handy, but its this one -

    minus the scope and handgrip, although I think I have a scope lying around too that you can have.

    I also have some other bits and pieces, but they're ex-display and shop stock so I dont think I can offer them here.

    Thats a sweet looking gun, never taught of an mp5 :). If not allowed put them here could meet up and organise it in person with the intention of trading because of this add? Think would be okay for them here then? I'm heading down to wexford today but could meet tomorrow or any day next week.

    Yep, perfect.

    This is back up for trade as on closer inspection I realised the mp5 just wasnt for me and another item turned out was missing a part so I couldnt get that one :(.
    The htpc now has a fanless cooler on the graphics card so is alot quieter. You could make it totally silent if you would put a fanless cooler on the cpu for the ultimate htpc :).
    Temps while gaming where a max of 79deg. With the original cooler temps would be higher than this even with a noisey fan on it.
    You can see in the pic heres the cooler I added. The heatsink is about 3-4times the size of the original which is why it can keep the gpu so cool
