    Hi i would like to build a PC that i can have fully networked in my house, either coming from the Attic, or i am going to build a little "room" to house it.
    I was hoping i could get a parts list or pointers here, about what type of Parts would i go for.

    I have built one, from a recommended list on here, and it's going great, so a MASSIVE thanks to all who helped, and the person who put the parts together (i can't for the life of me remember who it was :().

    I'm thinking of getting a 3D card, so that i wouldn't have to upgrade for quite some time, if ever.
    So 3D full HD. Maybe a small monitor so i can put it beside the PC to tweak/fix any problems i may have.
    I would also like a fair bit of storage to house all my DVD's and Blu-Ray Discs.
    I will rip them directly to the drive, so would like it to have a blu-ray/DVD combo player/recorder or whatever.

    Apart from that, i don't know anything else i would need, would i need a special card with many ports, to connect it? Would i benefit from having a TV card, and maybe connecting Sky+ box to it?
    (I'll leave that until later.)

    Could someone post an example, or possibly even their recommendation for the type of build i should go for?
    I will probably have 4 TV's connected to it eventually: Sitting Room, Kitchen, Bedroom, and maybe one in spare room.

    All/Any Help Gratefully appreciated.
    I don't even know how to get to the 3D-HD cards in hardwareversaand..:confused:

    Thanks..
