Hello,
I was wondering if anyone here has a Intel Core Solo 1.5 GHz that is capable of HD content, and with the menu's flowing smoothly. Picking up a used one seems like the best possible option for me due to space, price, and feautures
TIA
I have a 1.5ghz single core with the original specifications and have tested it a bit. Menus are working fine, but it´s not capable of showing hd-content. 1080p material plays at maybe 10-15fps with constant frame dropping. 720p barely works, when viewing scenes with a little higher bitrate it starts to drop frames there aswell. So I would recommend at least the 1.83ghz dual core, you probably need even more if you want all 1080p material to work.

Thanks, but this thread does not help me as there is no mention of the specific hardware I mentioned, nor much confirmation on the subject.
