7300/LE for media/file server

[Scottland]

Would something like a 7300 Turbo cache be suitable for playing videos etc on a Media PC, or do I need something beefier?

At the moment, there's an X800 in it, but I want that for my other system.

The other option is an X1600 Pro, but that's an extra £25.


Cheers

they will all play videos etc. all new gfx cards could play videos with no problem, in fact if its just for vidoes, i sudgest you just buy the ceapest available

It will probably get migrated over to Vista, and need to use either Vista's own MC, or Media Portal. I also want it to be decent quality also

should be ok, but i wouldnt try and play games with it!..a friend of mine had one in his C2D system and it wouldnt play Tiger Woods07

Yeah, games it won't be doing; hence the 2nd system
