[QUOTE="akajester, post: 394045, member: 83447"] What video output on the ati are you using now? What source quality are your videos? What is your display device? Are you running DXVA? or is your cpu doing all the video processing? I'm running the same ATI 3450 card with vga out to a projector and a 7ft screen. My content is 1080p mkv files and my projector is set to 720p. It looks awesome! I'm running DTS audio out over spdif to a harman kardon receiver and it sounds great. The downside to optical, due to restrictions you won't ever get DTS-HD or TRUE-HD audio over it. So, in order to get the better audio you need to run it out HDMI. Of course that assumes that your receiver is new enough to handle HDMI audio and those formats. :) So, I'm going to wait along time before upgrading my video path. -akajester [/QUOTE]
