[QUOTE="dcwp, post: 391141, member: 25562"] Hello and welcome, You should be able to make this system work as long as you steer far clear of HD content. A couple of thoughts on your post: Remote - I use the MCE remote and absolutely love it. Integrates seamlessly with MediaPortal, worth every dime in terms of WAF and general usability. Graphics - I don't have a preference b/w ATI and NVidia, but my last couple of cards have been NVidia. I'd go with the larger card for a few extra bucks. It will really make a difference, especially when you try streaming content from HULU, etc. Other thoughts - are you planning to do any live TV on this machine? The DVR functionality of MP is great. Netflix streaming is a great service for HTPC use in the states. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
