Slowest MP HTPC?

redskillz · 2007-09-04, 20:22

Hello,

I was just curious of my htpc is the slowest on this forums!

Specs:
S370 Celeron 1,1Ghz Coppermine 128kb
512MB SDRAM (the board couldnt handle more)
Board is from an old compaq machine.
80GB Maxtor IDE 7200RPM 8MB
Nvidia 6800XT 256MB AGP
Hauppage PVR-150-MCE
WLan Card 54Mb/s
MP 2.2

And it runs fast enough to watch TV, Movies,
record / watch the recording at the same time.

Anyone?

I run on a PIII 650 Mhz, 386 mb ram, 64 mb radeon 7500 gfx card... but without a TV-card

Dual Slot 1 P3 500 100bus, AGP2x 9500pro, ran the TV server and MP with No problems with SD material.

Rock solid with w2ksp4 and MS-SQL

I have recently upped this to dual P3 1000 100bus for more HD material. four tuners and multiple MP clients.

Had nine streams recording/timeshifting without problems
