I just recently built this rig, is this a great htpc steal or not?
(I got the board, case, and memory for 70.00 on craigslist)
APEX MI-008 Black Steel Mini-ITX Tower Computer

GIGABYTE GA-H67N-USB3-B3 LGA 1155
Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-H67N-USB3-B3 LGA 1155 Intel H67 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Mini ITX Intel Motherboard
(Got 2x4gb) G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)

Pentium G620 (Got this for 59.99)
Newegg.com - Intel Pentium G620 Sandy Bridge 2.6GHz LGA 1155 65W Dual-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 2000 BX80623G620
I also put in my 250gig and 2 tb hard drives, existing geforce 8500 video card, also pre-existing windows xp 64bit
All together I paid 130.00.
Good deal or no? Also is the memory overkill? I run xbmc with all my 1080p HD Blu-ray movies.
