Default HDTV Upgrade suggestions\ideas welcome

Hi to All

Looking to update my PC, which is my HTPC but need to do more tha MP can Handle (at moment).
Prerequisites are:

Capable of running MP (of course)
Video editing\encoding at the fastest Pace (need to get back to MP :lol: )
Preparing for HDTV

So i'm looking at,

AMD Athlon X2 4200
Abit AV8-3RD Eye Skt 939 K8t800pro 8xAGP ATX
OCZ Premier Dual Channel Kit 4x512MB DDR400 PC3200
Sansun Arctic 550w Modular PSU
Fusion HDTV DVB-T Dual Freeview Digital PCI TV Tuner Card
Seagate ST3250823AS 250GB 7200RPM SATA/150 8MB Cache
Philips 26" digital widescreen flat TV model 26PF5520D/10

Keeping both other Hard disks, Question which would you use as system disk, Sata or IDE ?

Any suggestions\alternative ideas are very welcome, Yes this is a boys toy, we all have to have a hobby

And remember FUNDS are not unlimited hence keeping perfectly good graphics card plus the rest below that fits, That's why motherboard must have AGP.

Good reading and all alternative's\suggestions welcome
