[QUOTE="Tesla, post: 762921, member: 88010"] Thanks for the reply. I have been using FFDShow (Goose's old Codec Setup doc) mainly, but the last time I used SAF 5.x (on an AMD dual core) and it works fine ... so I'll probably use it again. I think they work about the same. So, since we mainly play SD (and only the occasional 720p AVI) we should be ok with an old dual core and something like ATI 4200 IGP. I know shared system memory is slower than dedicated VRAM, but I guess it's fast enough now-days. I usually prefer 480p or 720p. The Onkyo amp. and/or 1080p plasma upscale to 1080p nicely from there. Funny you mention Intel Conroe e6600. That's a really nice dualie. In fact, we have one and have concidered building a NewEgg machine around it. About $300 without OS, best I can tell. [/QUOTE]
