Zotac GIGA ZBOX ID70 Plus

In my hunt for a HTPC to delve into the realms of XBMC, I've been offered the following at a decent discounted rate (it's an ex-demo).

Would this handle flawless 1080p ? I'm not fussed about 3D. I would want all the media to be streamed from the unRAID server at home. I would want to be able to stream from internet / browser based media as well. It will be hard wired to a gigabit LAN. Can this do what I want ? Ideally with Windows installed but Openelec might be an option.

It would play anything you threw at. If you had good deal, grab it.

Thanks. I just need to have a look at the condition of the case and it might be the way I go.
