Compact & Cheap HTPC

Build Description
This is my home theater/couch gaming pc. It sits under my tv, where I use it to play games that are best suited to controllers, and also watch movies and stream content on it as well. Don't need a Roku or Fire Stick when you have a whole PC hooked up to your TV. Couch co-op games are a lot of fun as well on this setup.
Favorite Feature
I really like how compact it is. It's out of the way, but the case still provides enough airflow to keep the components within safe temperatures.
