Hello guys.

I have an old HP pavillion-p6669sc (Link to specs: http://goo.gl/EcHhss) and I want to know if this will be OK for using as HTPC. I only want to run XBMC on the machine and possibly add a TV tuner. Right now it is VERY noisy, so I was thinking about changing the case and fans, but using the same Mobo, CPU and GPU (possibly upgrading PSU as well, as it is noisy too). Would this work, and how much would I have to spend on making it an OK machine for HTPC use?

That system is more than enough for an HTPC with a TV Tuner card. Cost to you would just be the case and power supply (if you decided to upgrade it).
