Old Hardware .... 1080p?
#1
Would it be possible to run 1080p with this setup, assuming I am running Linux with VDPAU enabled?

I have the following:

AMD Athlon 2500+ Barton (1.83Ghz)
Abit NF7-S Mobo
512mb - 1Gb RAM

and will add:

PCI 8400 or 8600 Nvidia Card

Pretty cool, huh? 600 Mhz Pentium III running 1080p video?

...and another one:
