[mythtv-users] Advice before buying a dedicated MythTV system.

[Richard Bronosky]

Here is my current setup:
http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/WishList/WishShareShow.asp?ID=1599414&WishListTitle=Mythical+MythTv+Box

I'm thinking about going with this processor:
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16819112196

It's got a faster clock, fast FSB, but less cache.  12KB+16KB & 256KB
vs. 64KB+64KB & 512KB  I'd save a few bucks, also.  Is it worth it?

I want at least 2 tuners, but I threw in a PVR 350 to get the remote,
and saved the cost of a video card.  Since I can add an nVidia MX4000
for <$50 I think the PVR350 may be a bad idea?  Is there a cheaper way
the add a remote? Home brew... IR blaster style?  If there is would I be
better off getting an AGP video card for doing DVD playback?

Any other suggestions?
