[QUOTE="Diaz, post: 249331, member: 55562"] I built a budget htpc about a year ago and it runs 720p x264 files with no problem (though cpu usage is very high). The cpu is a good old AMD Athlon 64 3500+ (boxed) and gfx-card integrated to the mainboard. I was wondering what the easiest solution would be to upgrade it so support 1080p x264-videos.. How fast a cpu is needed or are there any gfx cards that would do the job with the current cpu? Heat and noise are again important factors [/QUOTE]
