I have a old 600MHz PII with 384MB memory, gigabit NIC and a RAID adapter. It provides fantastic performance as a file server.

Although I won't be watching TV on this PC I was wondering whether this PC will have a enough grunt to host 3xDVB-T cards and GBPVR to feed TV to other PCs. I may also use a MediaMVP.

Any opinions? Do you think I will need another PC to host GBPVR?

Any recommendations on which DVB-T cards I should use?

I doff my hat in the general direction of Sub, as I'm much impressed with GBPVR and especially the integration with MediaMVP.

Thanks in advance,

It might be ok as a recording server. I would have said it was too slow for running the user interface if this was also a requirement (incl MVP). The interface would work, but it'll be a little slow. I usuallly recommend a 1GHz+ machine.
