How convert workstation to a good gameroom computer?
I just bought a HP XW6400 workstation ($100 on ebay) and I'd like to use it in my gameroom. I mainly want to be able to watch movies, listen to music, and play the occasional game. The only game I play is World of Tanks, but my kids like Minecraft, Terreria, ect. It appears that this workstation is really optimized for business use, so I'm wondering what would need to be upgraded to make it into a decent gameroom computer? I've got a MS Dreamspark account, and can download any MS OS for free, so I'd like to see what you think would be best, also. The specs are:
CPU- 2 Intel Xeon 3.0Ghz 5160 "Quad"
Memory- 8GB
Hard Drive- 250GB SATA HDD
OS Software- Windows Vista Business 64-Bit
Video- Nvidia Quadro FX 4600
Video card has 2 DVI outputs, so I'm thinking I should get a DVI-Hdmi cable, or I could do DVI-DVI (tv supports it), Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can give me.
