Let me preface this by saying that I am not by any stretch of the imagination a hardcore gamer. I play games from time to time and not for very long. I HAD the Dell 2408 WFP yet found it unusable due to the horrible input lag. I had the first version of it (REV A00) and since that time they've...

Thanks for the info everyone. And cool HTPC build w1retap! I think I may go w/ the 8200 chipset for now. As long as it is adequate for what I want to do then it should be good enough.

Here's a good answer on 24fps from that article referenced earlier: "Most movies are recorded at 24 frames per second, however most displays and graphics cards refresh the screen 60 times per second (60Hz). Enter the home theater space and you'll find a number of displays that can properly...

Can the same be said for the Nvidia GeForce 8200 chipset? Also, does Windows Media Center support DXVA?

To be honest I'm not exactly sure either. From what I've read it sounds like 95% of Blu-Ray content is 24fps but again I don't know how to tell for sure while you're watching it. But when you're watching, pay particular attention to scenes where the camera is moving around or zooming in to see...

Thanks for the quick reply. Do you know for sure that it is 24fps content that you are watching that is having no issues? The Anandtech article seems to indicate that the problem only occurs with 24fps content and only during screen panning. I just find it odd that of all the 780g articles I've...
