19PLEASE HELP ME OUT BY HITTING THAT SUBSCRIBE BUTTON! Let me know in the comments if you want to see more new content like this.
I created this video just as a quick proof of concept for what a Mini HTPC with KODI is, and what it does. I built this Mini HTPC out of some used parts I had laying around, and paired them with a Mini ITX motherboard+CPU+case I got for around $94. This video is not meant to be a guide on HOW to build a Mini HTPC, but I WILL help you with any questions you have about building one to the best of my ability.
