Hi ,
First time poster so please be gentle….
I am turning my Old Dell inspiron 546 into a HTPC. (Please don’t laugh)
It has AMD 64x2 DC 5400+ 2.8ghz.
3gb ram.
And ATI Radeon HD 3400 card.
So far I have had mixed results, the picture quality on my Sony Bravia TV look great with true HD mkvs, but with some of the sd rips the picture quality is far lower than my Xtreamer MK1.
Also whilst watching every now and then a small part will go pixelated and come back to normal again.
Will changing my Graphics card help, been looking at a Nvidia GT610 with 1gb
Thanks in advance
