hey guys,
i'm thinking about builing a htcp mainly for watching and recording freeview to replace my vhs recorder. I already have a nova tv 500 freeview card i can use and the other parts i'm looking at are the Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H motherboard which should hav sufficient graphics proccessing for dvd and tv playback. 2 GB of crucial ballistix memory and the antec minuet 350 case. All of this comes to about 120. The only thing left is a proccessor. I already have a p4 3ghz lying around but i dont know how hot this will run for this setup. I really need to know if this proccessor is sufficient and the type of cooling i could get for it and also is there a better motherboard for a htcp then wot i have chosen... Any recommendations would be appreciated... lookin to spend as little as possible...thanks
