To Buy or Not To buy Ati 2600pro
Hey guys, I'm no noob when it comes to media centre but I am wondering a couple of things.
Currently I have a nice E4500, 2gb ram, PCI-E HD2600pro hdmi (just to cut it short) media centre setup in my lounge room. I have now got to a stage where I have a significant amount of 1080p content on my media server and it is getting to a stage where my bedroom media centre is becoming less utiliesed because it can't playback 1080p encoded content.
My bedroom specs are P4 3.0Ghz Northwood, 1024mb ram, gainward 7600GS AGP 256mb DDR3. Its a very very basic system originally mocked together to playback divx which it does a smashing job at. Now I was wondering if i purcahsed an AGP HD2600pro( or HD2400AGP as its cheaper) becasue it has the Avivo processor inside would it then take over all the processing of HD content and thus acheive my result of 1080p playback on this system?
Both systems running XP MCE
Thanks in advance
James
