for details http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/QC5000M-ITXPH/ (http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/QC5000M-ITXPH/)
RAM - 4gb*2 DDR3
Storage - Sandisk SSD 120gb
Planning to use Daphile as the OS [headless], as of now i installed Windows 7 64bit Home Edition to monitor the temperature and if it have enough power to play DSD files.
Current set-up:
PC>SMSL M8 DAC on P1 LPS>SMSL SA-36a Pro>Speakers
Software - Foobar, remote controlled on cell phone
In my AC less listening room, the CPU temperature is around 50deg C, playing SACD ISO & DSD files at native bitrate & depth - CPU usage is around 33 percent. I don't plan to up-sample so IMO this build will do.
