First, sorry if this isn't in right place or format.
Current Media PC:
eMachines EL1210-09
with Windows 7: Home Premium and an AVerTVHD Duet
it lacks storage space and isn't strong enough to take another AVerTVHD Duet
Ideas for New Media PC:
OS: Windows 7: Home Premium
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-H77M-D3H - $94.99
Processor: Intel Core i3-2100 - $119.99
Power Supply: Silverstone ST50F-P - $79.99
Memory: G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) - $29.99 + tax
Case: Silverstone GD05B - $89.99
Storage:
OS: Intel Solid-State Drive 330 Series 60 GB - $69.99, $49.99 with rebate.
Data: WD20EARX 2TB - $119.98
Tuners: AVerTVHD Duet x 2 - already have one $64.99 + tax
Optical Drive: A SATA DVD writer I have sitting around may replace with Blu-ray Drive later.
Questions:
Will all this work together?
Don't yet have a 3D TV but could this play 3D Blu-Rays to a passive Vizio 3D display?
Would this be able to record 4 HD channels at the same time and still play back a HD show, DVD, Blu-Ray, or 3D Blu-Ray - Real Disks or ISOs at the same time?
Can I go with a smaller power supply?
Are there any smaller modular power supplies?
picoPSU look cool but I think they may be too small.
Is the Intel Core i3-2105, 2120 or 2125 worth the extra cost or needed?
Did I list any parts that have a equal or better quality replacement for same or less cost?
