Media PC Set up

I got a ton of money in amazon credit selling my last few semesters back via their site, along with a few gift certificates via our reward program at work and decided I'd spend it on a TV / Media PC for the office. I think all told after all the damage was done, the whole thing cost me $12 and change.

The cable gangs, mounting brackets, and saw came a day earlier, so I was conveniently able to prepare for the TV coming tomorrow.

On another note, I have a video card hanging around from the ATI HD Class Action Settlement (http://www.neoseeker.com/news/11076-ati ... -hd-4650s/)- I think it's a 4650 512MB PCI Express card with an HDMI out - I was interested to see the Clarkdale processors have GPU's built into the CPU, but I'm wondering if this is dedicated hardware, i.e. if you don't use it it does nothing, or if it just throws more load on the CPU - and what the motherboards do for RAM - do they take a segment of system memory or do the motherboards have xxx amount of their own RAM built in? What's the lowdown?
