[QUOTE="miroslav22, post: 780099, member: 97642"] It's up to you really. If you think you might want to play games in the future then i'd recommend investing in both a decent GPU and CPU. If you will only ever want HD video/TV playback, i'd recommend getting a motherboard with the 880G chipset and a cheap processor My client PC uses: [url=http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalog?hl=en&q=880g+mini+itx&gs_upl=319l2863l0l2968l13l12l0l4l4l0l241l1233l1.6.1l8l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=1280&bih=923&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=8579134167583581507&sa=X&ei=OQNWTr20PMq28QPO_7WMDA&ved=0CEsQ8wIwAQ]ASUS M4A88T-I Deluxe - motherboard - mini ITX - Socket AM3 - AMD 880G - Socket AM3[/url] and [url=http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalog?q=amd+250&hl=en&prmd=ivnsfd&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=1280&bih=923&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=13094442368187467108&sa=X&ei=3QNWTpO6BYas8gPN88G0DA&ved=0CIcBEPMCMAc]AMD Athlon II x2 Dual-Core (250) 3.0GHz Processor 1000KB (L2 cache) Socket AM3 - Retail (Boxed)[/url] That's essentially all it has and it plays all blu ray content and 1080i tv channels perfectly!
