[QUOTE="freaker, post: 285179, member: 78154"] Hi I am in the process of building my HTPC and I'm using my "old" computer for this. It's a 3ghz P4 with 1Mb of cache and 800mhz FSB. One of my main intentions with this HTPC is to play 1080 mkv files. This are encoded with the X.264 codec. As my motherboard has only an AGP slot there are not a lot of cards I can choose from. At the moment I have an ATI X1550 and I can play with no problems mkvs up to 720p with no problem. But 1080p files don't play smoothly. I've read that the ATI HD2600 can decode 1080p h.264 files with the GPU.. Does anybody have any experience with this video card? Can it decode 1080p withouth using the computer's CPU? Do you know any other AGP card that can decode h.264 by hardware? thanks [/QUOTE]
