Don't all NVIDA cards get that? Because I have it on my Geforce 8800GT too.

FF and reverse doesn't produce macroblocking on my GeForce 9600M GS.

I've tested with OpenElec, XBMC Live, XBMC under Linux and Vista. All of them with VDPAU or DXVA2. Though, I must admit that it has been a long time that I haven't used XBMC under Vista. I'll test later on.

It's a Zotac, just wait until they release pricing on the unit and it won't look so attractive anymore. I won't be holding my breath waiting for this one.
