[QUOTE="flintstone99, post: 785169, member: 72866"] [b]AW: Newbie, Need some recommendations please....[/b] Well..... The details I had in mind was the processor type. Really old 3ghz CPUs could be critical, so what is it? Also consider power consumption and heat dissipation ==> heat means cooling means noise, so if the boy shall go to he living room.....I use an AMD Athlon X2 with 2x2.7GHz and that is more than sufficient for OTA in HD, but that is DVB-S2 in Europe with Astra, while it is Atsc for you? Digital Audio has two major options to my understanding: via digital output of the sondcard or the motherboard integrated audio (spdif/ optical). Other option is via HDMI, that could indeed come from the graphics card. Here you have to check on the standard. Newest as I believe is HDMI 1.4. Regards Flintstone [/QUOTE]
