Did I make the right choice re: i3 3220?

Building a HTPC and an office workstation on a budget (I've tried out the HD4000 in my Streacom build and it's fairly impressive). HTPC won't be used for games at all, purely playing back hi res and other video files plus some web browsing. Possibly playback from dvd/blu-ray but I'll have a dedicated blu-ray player (Oppo). Any encoding will be done on another computer, I use a network drive to store my files so barely any encoding will be done on the HTPC. From what I've read, the HD2500 doesn't have a lot of grunt in games, but playback should be fine.
I presume that it's ideal for basic workstation use (internet mainly and word processing/spreadsheets, no gaming)? I am upgrading the office computer from a Pentium 4.
