I'm selling an i3 HTPC system I used for about a month and a half. It's great and all but now that I have an HDMI capable laptop, I kinda don't need it anymore. That said, here are the specs.

GIGABYTE H55N-USB3 - Mini-ITX board with USB 3.0 support.
Intel i3-530 - 2.93GHz dual core CPU with 4MB cache.
Mushkin Blackline 4GB (2x2) DDR3 1600MHz - 7-8-7-20 @ 1.65V.
Powercolor HD 5570 1GB DDR3 - Low profile card that runs on very little power.
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB - Low profile hard drive.
In Win BP655 - Mini-ITX case, comes with a 200W power supply.

This is a pretty tiny machine and looks great in a home theatre setup. It supports S3 standby/wake-up. It supplies the entire machine at 200W without any problems. Ran Prime95 for 10 hours and Memtest86+ passed it. I was playing Starcraft 2 on 1080p with settings on medium/high and it gave me 61 FPS.

The computer also has room for an additional hard drive (any size). However, the motherboard does not support RAID.

I'm throwing in Windows 7 Professional and a Belkin Basic Wireless N USB adapter along with the computer.

Looking for $600, $550 without Windows 7 Professional and wireless adapter.

Oh, and anywhere in Toronto would be alright for meetup. Ottawa if I'm going to be there.

Insides. Cable management is a bit harder in a smaller case.

Comes with a stand so you can put it sideways if you wish. Dance Mix '94 for comparison and not for listening.

Of course.

Everyone knows that the Dance Mixes went to hell AFTER '93.
(but I still ended up getting '94 and '95)

I think '94 is still the most popular (read: notorious) one out of all of them.

Price drop to $600, $550 if you don't want 7 Professional and the wireless adapter.

IS IT BETTER THAN KURT'S?

Same processing power but weaker video card for obvious reasons. This actually has faster RAM than Kurt's.
