    The name : "HFPC Mod" for High Fidelity Paradyse Computer.

    The concept : A home-theater computer (HTPC) inspired by high-fidelity world and components.

    The story : Since few years I was thinking of a high-end HTPC with a Hi-Fi inspired look, to be the masterpiece of a high quality audio-video configuration.
    But at this time I was already building the Paradyse TJ07 Mod so I had no time to build two mods at the same time. I built a "classic" temporary HTPC to still enjoy my installation.

    Paradyse TJ07 Mod is now "ended" and I can put my work on this new project : the HFPC Mod.

    getting rid of the gold on that card? I don't like it, unless it'll be eccentuated throughout the build?

    If you last build is anything to go by this is going to be absolutely stunning.

    That case looks unbelievable and awesome choice on the PSU :D, I just bought one myself actually, completely inaudible so a great choice for any HTPC.

    Yes you're right shah. But I'm still waiting for the motherboard to begin the "real work". I need it for the internal cable lenght and sleeving, management, etc... I don't want to begin before, in order to make it fit perfectly (or try for it ;) )
