Hey guys,
I have a desktop that I used for storage using Freenas,but have decided to just get a Synology instead.
I would like to use the desktop to run XBMC instead of selling it or let it sit collecting dust. I use an Android box to run XBMC at the moment,and it's not the best at times. There is alot of stuff I don't even use. I basically used XBMC with the popular plugins and that was it.
I'll give you the specs and then tell me what you think . If I need to upgrade anything,let me know.
If I do keep it.I would like to get more of a HTPC case to put it all in if possible,the case now is just to big to put into a media center.
Highlights of the specs..
1.Intel Pentium Dual CPU [email protected]
2.64 Bit Win 7 Pro
3.4gb Mushkin PC-6400 Ram (upgraded)
4.Ati Radeon HD 2600XT Video Card (upgraded)
5.Gigabyte Ethernet (upgraded)
6.MSI MS-7525 (Boston)
Link to the desktop...Desktop
Not really worried about storage since the NAS will store all my stuff.
Let me know what you think.Use it or just get a Pivos Xios DS and put LInux XBMC on it?Thanks
