No, the 6100 does not do HD playback. I would not get that combo deal. It's already obsolete and won't make a good htpc. Get a motherboard with the 780G chipset, a cheap X2 processor, and 2gb ddr2-800 ram. The 780G has the AMD HD3200 graphics, which is excellent for onboard graphics. Plus you can always add a hd3450 card later for hybrid crossfire. I just bought a Foxconn 780G motherboard and a X2 5000+ BE for an htpc. The Foxconn is $66AR.
