[QUOTE="revs, post: 817743, member: 42810"] As with all things - they work for some people, not for others. In this case I have been unlucky With the 6450 the 11.11 drivers caused total corruption of one of my HD channels. Changed to 11.4 and all was ok. But then the main problem is the HDMI port, if I use it then I get 'hum bars' across the TV at 50hz. Looking into this it seem I am not the only one. I have yet to confirm if it happens when using DVI (I am told it does not, and that its a HDMI only problem). My old card did not have HDMI, only DVI and that was fine - which backs up the DVI/HDMI issue some people see. It is a pity, because the ATI cards are cheaper and hardware is smaller and fits better in a small PC As for picture quality - not all cards are the same - As I am talking about the deinterlacing that each card does, and how well it does it will affect the image. See comparisons such as this one - [url]http://www.anandtech.com/show/4380/discrete-htpc-gpus-shootout/7[/url] [/QUOTE]
