Whats up everybody! Im new to this forum and looking to get a some knowledge on making one of my current pcs able to play H.264 flicks. Neither PC has a problem with 720p. It's just 1080p.
Here are my pc specs:
Win XP Pro w/ SP3
Asus P5N32-SLI SE DELUXE
Pentium D 940 Presler 3.2GHZ CPU
4x1GB CorsairXMS2-6400 RAM
2x Nvidia Geforce 7900GTX
Creative Xfi Fatality gaming sound card
Win XP Pro w/ SP3
ASUS P5ND2-SLI LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 4 SLI Intel Edition
Pentium 4 630 Prescott 3.0GHz CPU
3GB CORSAIR ValueSelect 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667
MSI NX6200LE-TD64E GeForce 6200LE 256MB
When I play some movies on my Pentium D PC the video is clear with no stuttering but the audio stutters and is about 5 to 10 seconds ahead. The RAM never goes past 23% and the CPU tops out around 80%. But there are also 1080p videos I try to watch that end up stopping or pausing for some reason. The P4 PC hits 100% CPU utilization fairly quickly. It really cant handle much.
Im not sure if I need some kind of codecs or decoders or what???
I also have recently purchased a XFX HD-487A-ZDFC Radeon HD 4870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card
Let me know if you guys need any other kind of info.
Thanks for any help!
