[QUOTE="dhanjel, post: 72815, member: 13960"] Hi Planning to upgrade my current htpc based on a socket 757 sempron 2800+ processor with a Readeon9800pro graphics card. I'm planning to upgrade to the following: Motherboard: Elitegroup Nforce4-A939 CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ (2,0GHz) Tray Graphicscard: Sapphire Radeon X1600 PRO HDMI 256MB ~€342 My questions are: 1. Does MP take advantage of dual core 2. Can MP be run under windows xp 64bit, and is performance increased? 3. Can this config play 1080p material smoothly? 4. Do I have to upgrade the graphics card to support the upcoming sound standards with blueray / hd-dvd (Dolby TrueHD. DTS HD..) ? 5. Do you recommend any other parts instead of the mentioned? Another minor question, has anyone heard if any blue-ray / hd-dvd combo computer players are planned to be released soon? /Daniel Edit: Posted in the wrong forum, feel free to move it to 'Hardware Selection Help' [/QUOTE]
