Re: IT geniuses!! I needz desktop, media server?

I highly doubt that will stream HD movies and it won't have the processing power to decode either. I have a pretty nice HD streaming setup at home, if you are using a PS3 to decode it you really don't need much. Gigabit connection is the main one if you are running full Blueray quality.

I built my computer for about $400 and have now added 2 more HD's to it. The computer is more than fast enough for streaming via PS3 Media Server. I could never get straight streaming to work via the PS3. It would always start to stutter after a while. I filled up the 1TB and 2TB in it and have another 3TB drive on the way. I downloaded 1.2TB last month, Comcast has the 250GB cap turned off right now :P
