ok so moving some old hardware around and upgrading to another case i have a spare
lian li v300 case
biostar T6100 socket 939 mobo
2gb ram
amd x2 4200
i would like to make this into a htpc connected to my hdtv...would the above specs be good enough?
the spare card i have for it is a 7900gs which i do not think its hdcp whatever
so if i just get say a 9600gt to decode would this be a pretty decent setup?
also for audio...it has on board which will just be hooking up to a older reciever should i just throw in a sb live or better sound card?
or should i be connecting the video through HDMI to the htdv or just use DVI and use the sound card to the reciever?
i will be buying an lg hd/blu ray player for this as well
thanks for the inputs.
