[CPU] Intel Celeron E3400 Wolfdale 2.6GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Desktop Processor ($40)
[MOBO+iGPU] ZOTAC GF9300-K-E LGA 775 NVIDIA GeForce 9300 HDMI Mini ITX Intel Motherboard ($105)
[CASE+PSU] Apex MI-008 Black mini-ITX 250W ($40)
[FAN] SilenX IXP-74-09 120mm Case Fan ($13)
[HDD] Western Digital Caviar SE WD1600JS 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive -Bare Drive that I salvaged from a Dell XPS 400 ($0)
[RAM] CORSAIR 2GB 240-Pin DDR3 DDR3 1333 ($22)
TOTAL: ($240) including shipping
I got these components from Eskro's reply to my previous post asking for suggestions. The only changes I have made are using the HD that I salvaged and Using the Intel Celeron E3400 Wolfdale 2.6GHz instead of the Intel Pentium E5700 3.0GHz that Eskro suggested. My question is, Would I still be able to stream Hulu and watch 720p videos in XBMC live with the slower processor? If I can, I believe this is the build I will go with. Thanks for checking my build!
