I've been an AMD guy for about 15 years and I've been happy enough with their stuff, but in doing some research it seems to me that the new Intel Clarkdale processors (i3 & i5) would be a better fit for HTPC use and I'd like to explore this as an option. In addition there isn't a passively cooled ATI 5XXX card on the market that's worth a damn (5450 & 5550 both kinda suck).

I know that deinterlacing 1080i content takes quite a bit of horsepower and I'm just curious to know the i3 has enough to get the job done? I can't really seem to find anything about it here or over on AVS. If I've missed it please direct me to the thread and accept my appology for the search fail. lol

Thanks in advance!
