[QUOTE="seco, post: 295922, member: 54595"] My motherboard has integrated Intel HDMI GPU which I just discarded and bought ATI Radeon HD4850. The SD picture is so great and smooth, I haven't got ANY judder/stutter since I installed it. HD capabilities are also great and better than any nVidia card at the moment (see wikipedia for nVidia Purevideo and ATI UVD / UVD2). So far the problems are that card is not very cheap and generates a lot of heat. Yet the card is powerful enough for games, so I must say that Flatout Ultimate Carnage looks awesome on 1080p screen and playing is just great with Logitech Rumblepad 2 :) I would say that you should wait for the low-end 4xxx series cards which should be out pretty soon, I'd guess they're lot cheaper and might have passive cooling. They should also have same video processing capabilities (UVD2) which I can really recommend. [/QUOTE]
