Hi there, I was wondering whether the following pc would run an hometheater pc, it's basically just gonna play some popcorn time, netflix and some movie streaming.

Intel Celeron 1037U 1.8GHZ CPU 4GB OF DDR3L 128GB SSD It's a Brix from Gigabyte.

Thanks a bunch in advnace

were you buying a whole new system or just some used thing off amazon?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
