Hi,
a friend of mine introduced me to MP and I am testing it on my pc where I watch tv series etc.
I am so into it now that I decided to build my own HTPC and I thought to get the following pieces:
- mobo: ZOTAC GF9300-A-E ATX per Intel soket LGA 775 2xDDR2 Pci-Exp Integrated : Lan-Audio-Video (link)
- case: ANTEC - Case Veris Micro Fusion 350 Ultra Slim MicroATX (link)
- cpu: INTEL - Pentium Dual Core E5300 2,6 Ghz socket 775 (link)
- mem: OCZ - Dimm Platinum XTC 2 Gb (2x 1 Gb) ddr2 800 mhz (link)
- hd: SEAGATE - Barracuda 7200.12 500 Gb Sata 300 Buffer 16 Mb 7200 Rpm (link)
(Sorry for the italian links )
Anyway I wanted to know if with this rig I can watch h.264, mkw at 1080p easily or will I struggle?
I am going to spend around €350 which is not bad. Do you have any suggestion to make it even cheaper keeping the same case and keeping in mind that I need to watch full HD movies?
thanks
