Lo,
I have this old rubbish rig (AMD 1800 @ 1.53 GHz, 768Mb of RAM and an ATi Radeon X1600 AGP GFX Card)
So I whacked it in my living room behind my TV hoping I could use it as a HTPC.
Overall, it works quite well but for some reason, some movies encoded encoded in certain formats stutter (especially the audio). I put this down to the rig being to old and crappy.
So my question is this, If I bought the best AGP card on the market, would my HD playback performance improve or is it CPU limited?
Thanks for any help you can offer on this,
Fifthfreedom
