So my dad is looking at getting a media center PC, and he had some computer guy (actually the same guy that put my computer together) to recommend stuff and quote prices. They're looking for relatively good perfomance, but mostly they want it to be quiet (because it's going in with the home theater stuff). It'll be used for some video editing, DVD burning, etc. as well as regular word processing and web browsing. Anyways, here are the specs; see what you guys think.
Mobo: Intel 955XBK
Processor: Intel 820 2.8 GHz dual-core
RAM: 1GB DDR2
HD: Maxtor 300GB SATA
Optical Drive: 16x16 DVD-RW with lightscribe
Graphics: ATI All-In-Wonder 2006
Case: Antec P150 Mid-Tower case with 430 W power supply
Wireless keyboard and mouse (any suggestions here?)
My dad was thinking about getting a seperate sound card (Sound Blaster XI Platinum) because it's for the home theater but if the integrated one on the motherboard is good enough he might not.
