[QUOTE="Owlsroost, post: 953940, member: 83973"] Go for the one with the best [B]GPU [/B]- the quad core A8. If you are using DXVA (normal situation these days), GPU performance is much more important to video playback smoothness than CPU performance. Also good software video decode filters (e.g. LAV, FFDShow) are multi-threaded for MPEG2 and H264, so overall the quad-core is likely to be better in that situation. Tony [/QUOTE]
