Hey everyone, I'm looking at building a mini itx home media center which can be used to view and record films,photos, music and moderate gaming at high medium to high graphics, furthermore it would be extremely helpful if its' processing power could be used by multiple user in different rooms at the same time. Like this
( http
/softxpand.londonweb.net/index.cfm?asset_id=1373 ). I'm able to build PC's but this is my first "from scratch" project This is the current idea for the build
( http/au.pcpartpicker.com/p/wct9t6 ). I would like it to have a wifi card, sound card and possible capture card. If it can be finished for under $1000 Aus that would be ideal, and the cheaper the better. Mini / Micro Itx is preferable but not essential. It will be connected directly into a standard 1080p TV and will use a wireless keyboard with a track pad as a way of navigation. The hard drives will be used in RAID 1 to preserve data in the result of a hard drive malfunctioning. The SSD would be used for OS but is not necessary. Originally the computer would use the TV's on board speakers, but I am looking at upgrading to a 5.1 surround sound system. Cheaper Mobo's, CPU's's etc, would be great but I am looking to keep similar performance for all the fields above.
Thanks in advance,

, The mobo Is worth around 100~, I have my own gaming PC so I don't need a more powerful GPU and storage is more important anyway, also having a bluray reader / writer is essential, finally size is a very important factor so the smaller the build, the happier I'll be.
