[QUOTE="Ruud, post: 298594, member: 10538"] Hi, problem is not in de Atom CPU. It will be powerful enough to run mediaportal and movies. Problem is with the onboard GPU that just is not up to the task and will place additional load onto the CPU when running MP. Take a look at my specs: CPU is even less then the Atom. For the TV server I have off-loaded the CPU by using hardware decoded TV cards. On the client I use a (passive cooled) graphics card that off loads the CPU. Recording on the server pushes the CPU load to max 15%, playing the recorded (mpeg2) content on the client pushes the load to max 40% So it all depends on the other components and of course of what you want to do with your HTPC. gr. Ruud. [/QUOTE]
