As you may know, I wish I would have soon a HTPC. So I’m looking for the components I will put in this system. One of the main component is the video card. On the one hand we have the future Sapphire video card Radeon X1600 Pro HDMI which is equipped with an HDMI output (see photo below).

It looks great except the active cooling system which may be noisy.
On the other hand, MSI will launch the NX7600GT-VT2D256E-HD which is an Nvidia 7600GT Fanless and HDCP:

Pros are:

  • Nvidia chipset which allow you to use software like TheaterTek based on Nvidia’s PureVideo Codec
  • Fanless cooling system : Noiseless
  • HDCP output : at least you can use HDCP display as projectors, flat panels and other

Con are:

  • DVI output, but don’t worry, you will only need an DVI to HDMI adaptor which is painless.

.htaccess sox!

My two web sites (the english one and the french one) were offline due to a “.htaccess” file in the root directory. I know the use of this file but don’t know why it was in my root directory. After deleting it, all was running file (big thanks go to my ISP support who find the problem).
