[QUOTE="DragonQ, post: 817727, member: 115209"] I have an Intel G530 paired with an nVidia GT 430. Plays everything using LAV Filters (for GPU decoding). This CPU is the best bang-for-buck I've ever bought (£36). I think a G530 by itself will handle everything except 1080i25/1080i30 using EVR as your renderer. It [i]might[/i] struggle with 1080i but I wouldn't have thought so. If you want to use MadVR as your renderer, then you'll definitely need GPU decoding (either QuickSync with fast RAM and overclocked IGP, or nVidia CUDA) so that your CPU is free to do resizing and post-processing - see [url=http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?p=21009914#post21009914]this post[/url] for more details.
