Hi
I'm planning on building a desk PC / htpc platform (with XBMC on windows 7 or linux, don't know yet)
Can you confirm me that this build is powerfull enough to watch 1080 HD files (bluray rips, mkv, etc) ?
Case : Antec NSK2480 (HTPC µATX alim Earthwatt 380W)
MB : Giga 880GM-UD2H (µATX AM3+DDR3+CG+PCI-E)
Proc : AMD Athlon II X2 245 (2.9 Dualcore AM3)
CPuFan : Shuriken(HTPC) 754/939/AM2/AM3/478/775/1156/1366
RAM : 2x2 = 4 Go DDR3-1333 PC10600 Kingston (kit)
64 Go SATA SSD OCZ Onyx MLC
- The MB contains a Ati HD 4250 graphic card. Is this OK ? do I need a dedicated graphic card ?
- What about the processor ? Do i need something more powerfull ? a quad core ? athlon II X3 ? X4? Intel i3 ?
- I heard there is some problems between XBMC and Intel i3, is this true ?
ps: i don't need tnt / recording etc
Thanks a lot
