Hi
In the hopefully-not-too-distant future I'm going to build a low powered, inexpensive HTPC and I was wondering is the £30 AMD A4-6300 APU up to the task of powering a HD DVR? I'll be honest, I haven't got a clue what kind of resources are necessary CPU/GPU-wise for this and would rather not go overboard on something that really only needs to stream online content, play blu-rays and stream games over LAN from a dedicated gaming PC elsewhere in the house.
