I want to assemble a home server and at the same time a media center, the most important thing is that the whole thing should be silent.
But I can't find the right motherboard.
if you take a board with a slot for PCI-E x16, then you will need to take a larger case, and I want everything to be compact, so I want it to be with an MXM slot.

Buy a quiet laptop or nettop.

And what tasks should the home server perform?
At one time, I also wanted to assemble a miniservachok, for downloading torrents and viewing them.
As a result, I settled on Synology DS210J (2x2Tb WD Greeen) + XTreamer (HD player).

Why a separate video card?
I kind of wish that the video cards and the processor were not already soldered to the board so that they could be replaced (in case it burns out or if I want to upgrade), I really don’t like boards with an integrated processor and a video card.
I already have a Foxconn G31MV motherboard (mATX, Soc-775, PCI-E x16).
Is it possible to assemble a computer with a Core2Duo processor + a Low End video card (GF 9300, GF210) on this board.
BUT to have an external power supply (like laptops), the power of such a power supply will be enough for work ???
I was thinking maybe I should buy a new board with MXM and a mobile processor, because then the power of the external power supply will definitely be enough.
