I am wondering, how much would be the cheapest way to build a HDTV/Blu-Ray out of a computer? I have a nice big computer monitor for my room, I can make it become a HDTV or blu ray movie if I make a computer for it. I know that we can get HDTV Tuner and blu ray drive in the computer. However, I don't know about motherboard, graphic card and CPU to set that up. I would start the cheapest way, because this computer is more likely to NEVER use for work, internet, game, etc.
Here's what I know
LG Blue Ray drive $150
HD Tuner $80
AMD Dual Core 64 X2 $35

Biostar 790GX Motherboard $99

Total: $365.00
For the cheapest available hardwares to set up, I expect to see awesome sick graphic from watching a blu ray movie or Super Bowl game. It might saves me a few hundred bucks to not buy a HDTV+Blu Ray drive combination.
