[QUOTE="djroberts, post: 627776, member: 104907"] I upgraded the machine to windows 7. On XP I cannot remember if I got MP to work with DXVA (I think I did), but MPC-HC worked fine with coreavc and ffdshow-dxva. Under windows 7 I can only get MP to work with DXVA using ffdshow-dxva and VMR9. Which is strange, I know EVR works for others. MP versions were 1.1.0RC3 and RC4 btw. I took a gamble and got the card yesterday and this is what I found out: - dxva is hardly a burden and does not heat up the gpu much. A fanspeed of 30%-35% is fine. - For games less than about two years old, you have to upgrade the cpu/mb as well, as it becomes a serious fps bottleneck. - I believe a conservative estimate of idle energy consumption is around 150 watts, making it an energy hog. I do not plan on running this thing 24/7. cheers, Daniel [/QUOTE]
