[QUOTE="simon_lkl, post: 62205, member: 21957"] hi guys I am trying to salvage as much from my old PC to build a budget but working HTPC for my living room to watch and record TV programmes. Below is the specs of my old PC and my view on them: AMD Duron 1 GHZ (sufficient?) 256 MB RAM (i think need to be at least 1 GB) CD RW (DVD burner?) NVidia GeForce2 MX 400 (good enough) 10 GB HD (bigger capacity HD I guess for TV recordings) What you guys think about it? What other components do I need to purchase other than the above? TV Tuner? And any recommendations? Really hope to get some opinions and suggestions. Thanks [/QUOTE]
