    I dont know of any pre builts no, there probably are some but they will always cost way more than building it yourself, especially if you want a "mini PC" you pay a big premium for the size reduction, too much in my opinion. You can build a mini itx system way cheaper though and it will stillbe very small as long as you get a mini itx case.

     

     Would you recommend Newegg or is there a better site for this I may not be aware of?

    Just trying to find something not too costly to keep more or less always connected to my TV, boot it up into BIGBOX mode and only go into LaunchBox mode when needed....The HTPC just needs to run games up to a PS1 level emulation at the correct performance, although more powerful if reasonable is good too.

    What are you guys doing that works well for this?

    Thanks.

    Here is mine:

    Anyone good at making these that can helo? I need one that for a playlist I will have in almost all platforms...(as a playlist), but need the clear logo to make it look good in BigBox...something with a darker color palette as I'm using the City Hunter 2 Theme in BigBox.

    This will be for: 
    4-5 Star Rated Games

    Thank you in advance!

    Are you guys using cloud storage? I'm trying to find something reasonable that's unlimited. Right now I'm running my games off of a 8tb external HD with another 8tb external backing up with macrium.

    The fear of losing my data is crazy at this point, I want to find a 2nd back up solution. 

    Same set up as me, save I backup the ROMS onlya slightly smaller drive, but for a backup I also use backblaze, it TAKES FOREVER, but it's a flat $5 a month, unlimited...hopefully that works out well.

    I have a full library of all consoles up to Ps2. I used windows deduplication so that I can store images without compressions but still save on more disk space than compression as it dedupes on the bit level. Let’s me save over 4TB vs undeduped for my current 16TB rom collection 

    I've never even HEARD OF THIS...I have Windows 8.1 (my preferred main OS), and my PS2 games are all .GZ compressed so after a small extraction during a launch of the game for the first time, there is no delay and I save some space...I wonder if this would save a lot more...any helpful guides to getting this working? Is it possible to gain a benefit on my already compressed .GZ roms? Thanks.

    About to get the full MAME set, but is the LB importer still at 0.202 or .203 now?

    Split or Merged better to get? I plan on importing a limited amount of games into this smaller collection of mine, and just want an easier time doing it...
