I want to build a Media PC. I like the Dvico Fusion HDTV card but am unsure about the system requirements needed to run it well. I know what it says on the box, but those are the bare minimum needed.
- in general, what components come under the greatest load from a tv tuner? cpu, vpu, ram, vram ????
- let's say I have a monitor that can display HDTV 1080i, 1920x1080 pixels. What kind of hardware requirements will I have for the rest of the system.
- Now let's say I want to run a second tuner to record, and have music network streaming to another computer.
So in the end, this PC will have high media demands. But no gaming, is a crunchy CPU and video card still required???
thanks
