Im thinking about building a media center pc, i just completed an upgrade to my desktop and have a few extra parts i want to use. primary use would be 720 and 1080 video and maybe valve games for fun.
cpu - e6400
memory - 4x1 gig valueram pc2 4200
video card - 7300le (pretty sure i need to upgrade this?)
psu - antec 500watt
thats all i really have right now, it would be nice to get everything in a small case maybe like this

so if you can answer a few questions for me that would be awesome!
1. Is my cpu powerful enough for 1080 playback?
2. Do I need to upgrade my video card?
3. Will the slow memory be a problem?
4. Can you recommend a couple micro atx motherboards?
Thanks in advance!
p.s - my new build is in my signature!
