[QUOTE="PLeblanc, post: 10724, member: 11495"] [b]Well... If you can wait a few months...[/b] It's also worth noting that I am looking to build my system before July, when the broadcast flag stuff will go into effect. As PJ pointed out, the upcoming SP and their new nano-itx mobo will both have real MPEG2 hardware decoding, and will have MPEG4 acceleration. Those boards also have some other stuff that might make them a little faster too. But the key thing here is "If you can wait". Neither board is out yet, and apparently Via has a bit of a reputation for being late on deliverable dates. So the slated release dates of early this year might not get here in time for July. (of course if you aren't in the US then July is no hard stop for you) [/QUOTE]
