Okay guys I am planning on a nice budget PC for playing some DivX movies and watching satellite TV on and playing the odd racing car game or whatever. I have some choices to make. I have been saving for some time in order to go ahead with this machine. This computer will be hooked up to a TV set, I know it'll be okay though, I checked. Here are my parts list:

Mobo/CPU

Right then, I have a PATA hard disk and for my media I have a SATA 320GB. So is it good to order?
