[QUOTE="drealit, post: 382367, member: 70031"] But even though that's true... it's definitive that the HD 3200 can't hold a candle up to the HD 4xxx family and its SD content processing (which is what I've been talking about this whole time). It's fact and tests have proven it over and over again... if you're referring to HD processing then yes they have performance that is very close to the same due to UVD2 (the HD 4xxx steps ahead in terms of 24p though - and I'm unsure what this is controlled by... at least the HD 4670 does I'm not sure about the others). But regardless, I've been talking about SD content... not HD... there's a huge difference when it comes to post processing etc. with standard definition. It requires a lot more processing power to deinterlace, noise reduce, etc. Post processing is handled by the shader capabilities of the chipset if I understand it correctly. Restating that they both have UVD2 doesn't really do anything to argue against my information regarding the SD processing of both chipsets... if you think they process SD content the same way to the same quality please provide me some results that confirm this because so far you haven't shown anything when it comes to that subject matter. UVD 2 does [I]not[/I] handle the post processing of SD content though (mpeg2). Bottom line HD 4670 is faster and more powerful hence better shader support... aka better post processing of SD content. Both chipsets have UVD 2 which is used for h.264/VC-1 content and they perform close to the same (as with most modern processors that are meant to handle HD/Bluray content - excluding 24p which I'm unsure what determines the performance of this). Not to drag this on and on but I just want to make sure that the facts are straight and no one accidentally buys the wrong product expecting it to handle something with high expectations when in reality it can not provide those results. [I]When it comes to processing SD content, the HD 3200 [B]<[/B] the HD 4xxx series.[/I] [/QUOTE]
