Hey Everyone, I am trying to setup another HTPC as the first one never really worked out. I have some older computer parts that i think will still work for my initial setup to get everything running. I realize this system will not display HD video, but can i get some feedback on the potential areas of improvement?
Motherboard: Asus A7n8X-E Deluxe
Processor: Athlon XP 2600 / ThermalTake Silent Boost 7v. mod
Sound: Motherboard SPDIF (?)
Video: Radeon 9600SE / WinTV-HVR 1600
Memory: Crucial 1GB DDR
Hard Drive: 500GB Seagate Barracuda 7200
Power Supply: True Power 380 Watt
Case: Antec Overture (this will be the first thing to go!)
TV: Hitachi p42H401 - Accepts a 1080P input, but native resolution looks to be 1024 x 108.
Software: Windows XP / GBPVR or Media Portal
I will be connecting the computer to the TV using a DVI to HDMI cable. Thanks
