Video accel with new HD3450 and HD3650

[bigsnyder]

Has anyone seen any benchmarks for 1080p output? I'm sure they
are at least as good, but I'm really curious about the HD3450/70 to
see if performance improved over the 2400Pro/XT.

what do you mean by 1080p output ? As in Video decoder wise ?

Blu-Ray, H.264, etc...

I could care less about gaming benchmarks. Wanting to find more HTPC type date.

well i think 3450 has new VPU so it should better.

probably better to get 3450 if it goes for $50 as it has DX10.1 , Display port , ATI powerplay , HDMI support , 55nm processor and lower power consumption :!

Thanks, that link is a good start. I will probably get the 3650, but I am not ruling out
the 3400 series due to price. I will wait and see what upcoming benchmarks and reviews
say.
