thanks for wiki edit ( in order of fastest ) this is how you can tell if your addicted to SlickDeals
by afsammie I'm not exactly sure what I just ordered, but I think I'm pretty pleased about it if it's what it might be, but then again, I have no idea exactly what it is... but that's the nature of slickdeals. Thanks OP! I think. |

Good deal!
Getting close to Microcenter deals! MC was selling G620 for $40 bucks alone Last year, MC was bundling G620 with H61 mobo for ~$90, so is the case worth another $90? Never mind, MC still rules!! |

if you put in a BD drive, will G620 be able to drive the video, with 8gb ram? i'm guessing yes, but just wondering how smooth.

I'm not seeing the deal. I can routinely buy ultra small and small form factor G620 boxes from lenovo's outlet for under $200 with windows, ram and hard drive included. I guess if you live in a 3x5 apartment and cant handle a shoe-box sized computer and need one half that size...

No quick sync (hardware video encode) and no clear video (video postprocessing to make video look better) in the G series, you get those in the i3/i5/i7. |

On the faster drives (830, 520) you could see a fairly significant speed improvement. If you're using a hard drive or an older slower SSD, then you're right, it won't matter. |

I just spent 30 minutes hooking up 3 different computers to my TV to stream a college football game from ESPN3. Ultimately, my desktop (specs in sig) won out as the only PC up to the task. I first tried a single-core Acer laptop w/ 8GB RAM and ATI 4200 graphics chipset that I had purchased 2 years ago. CPU hit 100% and video was horrible. Next was the Asus PC that I bought specifically for a HTPC a couple of years ago. It has a dual-core C2D chip in it. Nothing fancy or new, but 2 cores. Video was much better, but stuttered a lot when the camera zoomed out.
Lesson learned: don't skimp on the CPU when considering an HTPC. |

This would make a great router but no dual lan and no expansion slot :-(

Good for a fun project ---
Does any one know if this will drive 2 monitors at the same time, one from SVGA and one from HDMI? (assuming it will). But I am in for one, looks like a fun project box and there is allot of good uses for it. Anyone have a link to a cheap / good slim BD drive.

Also, if you want to Hackintosh, it's best to get an HD3000 chip (noted by model #'s in your post). Otherwise, the highest version of Hackintosh you could do would be Snow Leopard 10.6.3 (anything after won't work, you'll need HD3000 for 10.6.8 or Lion 10.7/Mountain Lion 10.8) |
