So I've got an old PC under the telly. Use it for Spotify, iPlayer, the odd avi etc. It's an Athlon 2000, with 512 RAM and a 128MB PCI graphics card.

It's getting a bit tired, and so I'm thinking of upgrading. I'm going to use it for the same stuff, but want the option of adding in a Freeview (or maybe even Freesat) card so we can use it as our PVR, and/or a bluray drive at some point.

However, I've not got a huge budget. Would these parts be ok, and would they be beefy enough to handle HD contant if I go down that route at some point in the future?

Mobo & CPU Bundle
GFX card.

With 1GB RAM. I've already got a case, PSU etc so it's just the guts I need.

Any feedback is much appreciated :-)
