Howdy
Now xbmc is leaving the xbox I think it's time I move on for the main system and get a PC built.
Won't be going for anything major just yet, want to get started and play about so here's the system so far
P5N-E sli plus
Pentium D 3ghz
2GB RAM
As many HD's as possible
Question is what GFX card?
I have 2 spare 7800GT's but if I read right 8xxx series is needed for HD support?
I need to know what's the best card to get, bare in mind I want cheap as possible for now, am guessing I won't need 8800GTX as won't be gaming!
Haven't decided if PC with be Live or Windows with XBMC, all depends on the best support.
Give me your advise and I'd be much appreciative
Thanks
