I am seeking some hardware configuation advice:

For Christmas, I have asked my wife for a server upgrade- farewell to
my P3 800.  I plan on making a Pentium 4 1.6Ghz 400Mhz fsb my myth
backend with 2 tuner cards (pvr250) which will drive a remote
frontend.  The hard disk is a regular ATA133.  The backend could be
recording two shows while the frontend is watching a third.  Do you
think this 1.6 Ghz box can handle this kind of backend load without
skipping on the playback?

Thanks!
