[QUOTE="kszabo, post: 313438, member: 61646"] yes, started with an X2 BE-2400 (45 W TPD, 2x2300 MHz). I was satisfied, only 1080i HDTV was not so as it should have been. For SDTV or progressive HD (720p, 1080p) I see no difference. With Phenom 1080i looks very nice, fluid and natural. If you use pdvd codec with MP, activate hardware acceleration in MP Configuration. The deinterlacing method will be set then through CatalystControlCenter (under Avivo settings): auto oder manual (weave, bob, adaptive, motion adaptive, vector adaptive). I use it "auto" :D but still testing [B]Edit:[/B] check this out: [URL="http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-phenom-athlon,1918-5.html"]http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-phenom-athlon,1918-5.html[/URL] The smallest Phenom X3 8450 has 22,2 Watt idle and 74,5 Watt peak consumption.
