The price is not bad at all, considering that it includes a copy of Vista Home Premium. BTW, does anyone know how to configure Astro to work with the HTPC?
PC Audio HTPC, anyone doing this?

Is it based on the new G45 chipset? As far as I can tell, the P45 is already in, so I suppose it should be already in. Have a look at LYN's pricelists.

 Should try this out. The only problem is, I do not have Astro. |

Nah, just wanna know whether can it be done. My parents don't like watching TV, and because of that, my home TV is still a 20" Aiwa. Darn.

If can, Windows MCE 2005/2006 If not, Windows Vista Home Premium. Otherwise, MediaPortal is a freeware. |

QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Jul 21 2008, 06:47 PM) make sure it is Vista Certified if u plan to use it on vista media center. Most new TV Tuners are Vista certified, but just keep an eye out to make sure.  |

8600GT should be enough. Anything more needs extra power cables. I'd recommend an 8600Gt, which can be bought for less than RM300 now.
