Can an Athlon X2 4850e handle 1080P video (Blueray)?

This is an upgrade scenario for already built HTPC. It?s a Gigabyte 690 board with a 1.8GHZ X2 that was going to upgrade with the 4850e.

Will that combination be enough for blue ray?
 
If things get choppy you can always throw in a $50 4650 or even cheaper 4550 just for the BR decoding.
 
Sould be more than enough. I have one in my 780G board and though I'm not doing bluray with it, it chews through everything I ask it to with gusto.
