Hello everyone
I need your opinion guys, I have an old pc, P4 3Ghz,DDR 512mb 400mhz ram, Nvidia 7600GS 128mb and a 80gb hard disk via esata. I have installed ubuntu and xbmc with a purpose to use it as a streaming device in my living room and maybe for a little web browsing. Streaming is ok but it has some issues when streaming or playing directly from hard disk 720p and 1080p mkv files. My question is: Is it worth it to buy a better display card with 512mb and install another 512mb for ram or should I buy a new streaming device?
Thanks for your time.
