9400 does 'partial' VC1 acceleration, which in plain English means that on my 5050e running 1080p24 source loads the CPU to 5%/15% per core, its fine.
Killa works fine, it would seem you read the first 3 pages of the nvnews.net mplayer thread and then got bored.
Finally, in one post you ask about the 8400GS for $40 and then complainn about the price of the 9000 series, they're punch for punch almost identically priced.
Just get a 9400 or 9500 with 512MB, its really that simple.
OK. Thanks for the info.
Any differense for hw-decoding in 9400 and 9500?
512MB you say. I guess then 256MB is not good enough, but what about 1 GB. Any benefits?
