pre-made htpc, how do these specs look?
#1
Just bought this htpc, haven't got it yet. I plan on using this to watch things on the icefilms and various other plugins, maybe set up sickbeard couchpotato and sabnzbd, build a movie library of ripped blu-rays or from icefilms, netflix...

[CASE] ANTEC ISK310-150
[MOTHERBOARD] ZOTAC G43ITX-A-E LGA 775 Intel G43 HDMI Mini ITX
[CPU] Intel Celeron E3200 Wolfdale 2.4GHz Dual-Core Processor
[RAM] Crucial 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
[Hard Drive] Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD3200BEVT 320GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s
[TV Tuner] ASUS Combo TV Low Profile Card with Remote My Cinema-EHC3-150/NAQ/FM/AV/RC
[Optical Drive] Slim Blu-ray
Windows 7 Ultimate

I'm thinking I'll probably want to eventually up the RAM to 4gb and put a bigger hard drive in the 2nd bay.
These specs look on par for a G5? Any suggestions?

Do you think that due to the motherboard? What would help this, add a gpu?
