Title: Integrated graphics HD
Post by: Ryoshin on September 02, 2009, 01:56:22 PM
Which motherboard integrated graphics cards can handle 1080p blu ray smoothly paired with a decent dual core processor?

That kind of helps I guess, but I'm more concerned with integrated graphics on the mobo, as a video card is pretty much out of the question. But thanks for the guide nonetheless will come in handy.

Why does video card is out of question? Is it laptop?
Will on-board video be able to handle HDef, or BlueRay video? Personally, I doubt.

@Bronimaybe the orig poster is tight on case space or has no free slots
LOL
but anyway onboard video would handle it



unlikely. HD/blu-ray requires a lot of power in both processor and video card.

you forgot this part

but it may be ether too slow or terrable aspect
the reson it would handle it is it would software emulate if the video card
cannot do it

which means it can't "handle" it.

Yes it can be done. I know it can be done with this motherboard here http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813500022

It's for an HTPC, and it will be a very small footprint, no room for a video card. I just basically wanted to know how low I could go, like GeForce 7100 or a GeForce 8200 or an Intel G41 or an Intel G45. Just trying to save money. Trying to keep it under 400 bucks IF possible.
