I'm rebuilding my Media Center. Looking for advice on whether I'm buying too much or too little. My usage for this box will be strictly as a Windows Media Center with BluRay.
Here's what I plan to buy:
MB: MSI 785GM-E65
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 255 Regor 3.1 ghz 65W dual core
MEM: Kingston 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600)
VIDEO: onboard ATI Radeon HD 4200
AUDIO: onboard Realtek ALC889 (7.1 with S/PDIF out)
PSU: Antec EA380D Green
I already have:
- HDHomeRun digital tuners
- NVidia DualTV analog tuners
- Blueray drive (SATA)
- 1TB SATA drive
- Nice Case
- Windows 7
I considered the MSI Media Live DIVA motherboard, but I need a PCI slot for the tuners I have.
My main question: am I buying too much or too little CPU and Memory?
Thanks!
