Hi all.

I will try to make me an HTPC and using Mediaportal.
So is this hw ok:
Intel 1.83 CoreDuo mobile , will upgrade my laptop using this cpu.
Motherboard: Asus N4L-VM DH : http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=54&l3=0&model=1092&modelmenu=1
TV card Hauppauge HVR 1300 : http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/pages/products/data_hvr1300.html
Memory : Corsair 2X512 mb PC8000
Should I have a gfxcard or using the onboard?

The built-in graphics support directx 9 so it should be fine. I don't know if it'll do HD, though. But hey, you could always stick a better graphics card in there once you get tired of this one.

Thx.
No at the moment no HD.
How about the Hauppauge HVR 1300 , anyone?

I'm using a HVR-1300 and it works fine with DVB-T
