Thats a huge waste for eCS IMO. eCS wont be able to take advantage of the 
graphics card at all, neither with the Blu-Ray. The processor, probably, but 
there may be an issue with the chipset and ACPI. Id say you could go for 
something way cheaper and it would be more suited to eCS. What you have 
right there is a sick gaming machine, or too much machine for the job of 
just running eCS lol.

no ideas, is it good PC or not.. it's necessary boot system with ACPI 
driver, etc.

* there is cdrecord with support of Blu-Ray (not tested)

* yes, ATI or Intel is better that NVidia for eComStation
