...just put together an old Fujitsu Esprimo - XP Pro (dual core 1.8) 1 MEG ram - and ATI 1meg graphics... HDMI to my 1080p TV....
Good overall picture - works a treat with attached USB 2TB HDD and ISO/MKV ripped dvd's. BUT - picture not smooth / little freezes -very 'twitchy' - sound out of sync ect.. when set to full 1080p....
Have to reduce (withing XBMC) down to around 848 x ? to get smooth motion.... but picture quality seems to suffer...not as much detail ect....
Is this set up not good enough for an XBMC HTPC ?
What can I do to improve - apart from buying another PC ??
