My current HTPC is using an Intel i5 with NVIDIA GPU (8600GT) and this hardware works perfect with XBMC, great playback and perfect flow in the menus.
Now I'm thinking of buying a new (bedroom) HTPC, and I wonder if new Intel CPUs with integrated GPU (HD Graphics 2500 or HD Graphics 4000) are enough for XBMC (Linux)? Or do I need to buy an extra NVIDIA GPU to achieve same XBMC performance as my current HTPC?
