<div dir="ltr">Celeron 1610... or Celeron G540 is all you need for a combined frontend/backend HD system if your not overly concerned about deinterlacing and don't need VC-1 support (or encoding support if/when it comes).<div>

If you are going to be doing HD, you need either a respectable CPU or a<br>
respectable GPU. I am not sure the system described above includes either.<br>
