[QUOTE="kingnubian, post: 252967, member: 70358"] Here is my setup. Intel E4300 @ 2.5ghz Asus P5L-MX Motherboard HIS HD3450 256mb (Comes with DVI->HDMI dongle) (Catalyst 8.3) 2gig (2x1gig) PC2-6400 DDR2 Seagate 7200.12 500gig Hard Drive Inwin Mt. Jade (BK623) MicroAtx Case Vista Home Premium 32" Samsung LNT3242H1099 LCD Television Mediaportal @ 1360x768 Resolution (EVR Enabled) Both FFDshow & CoreAVC used for H.264 video (Alternating to test) FFDshow used for everything else I just got my HDMI cable and have been doing some testing. In short, given that I had been using the VGA connection in the mean time, I've noticed that while HDMI in my setup looses hands down when it comes to the display quality of the windows desktop it offers a richer, brighter & IMHO better visual quality when playing back videos through my HTPC. My question is how can I make sure I am getting the best PQ & performance out of my setup using the HDMI connection? [/QUOTE]
