Hi,
I'm upgrading my PC from Q9300+HD5770 to something newer/faster. The PC is also used as an HTPC with a 20m HDMI cable to my living room where my AVR and projector are located.
I plan to upgrade it to Xeon E3 1230v2, and I have difficulties to decide whether I should get an ATI 7850 (Oh yes I play games) or an equivelent Nvidia card. In the past I always prefer ATI card, and it worked fine. I can easily switch the primary display forth and back between my monitor and projector, 24P/50P/60P works perfectly fine, and bitstreaming HD sound is amazing. I recently read the advantages of LAV CUVID Decoder based on nvidia card which seems to produce the best PQ nowadays, but I'm new to Nvidia card, does it support all the features I need?
Thank you in advance!
