[QUOTE="jimwin, post: 229931, member: 62878"] Hi, this is similar to my set up: CSE: Antec (NSK1300) 300W HDD: Samsung HD501SJ 16MB 500GB SATA2 GPU: 8500GT 512MB CPU: Intel E2140 BRD: Foxconn P4M9000 RAM: 2GB Crucial DDR2 667MHz My case is small and cramped, and the motherboard isn't exactly overclockable, but it all runs cool at stock speeds, especially with RMCLOCK to control CPU clock speeds (idle at 1.4, full at 1.6). Every component of mine is lower spec / cheaper than you are looking at, barring the GPU. This system is fully capable of playing HD MKV files in 720 etc, and usually runs around 25-30% on them (CoreAVC codec). I don't do the HD TV capture though. As above, there is no need to overclock, unless you are playing high end games. Hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
