i want to put together a cheap divx only machine to hook into my tv with parts i already have. so far i have:
celeron 466
ep-3vbm mobo w/ 2x agp
power supply
ram
I am thinking about getting around a 4 gb hdd b/c i found a good deal. i need to know if the agp slot and processor will be too slow. if not, what would be a good vid card? and do i need one with hardware dvd decoding?
Also, I was considering whether to use linux (with X windows) or windows.
Finally, how much ram would i need?
Thanks in advance for any advice
