The main issue is de-interlacing, so if you can live without that, you're fine. Also though, the card (at least ATI's version) comes with DisplayPort, VGA, and DVI, but no HDMI. You'll need an adapter or to get a version that replaces one of the ports with HDMI.<br><br>For my next build I'll probably go with the 5670 just so I know I'll get the best HTPC experience. I don't play PC games, so it'll be plenty for me, and not much more expensive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fancy Shmancy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 4th 2010 12:15PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI Radeon HD 5450 focuses on multimedia features, neglects gaming]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</guid><description><![CDATA[@flux Yea that lack of HDMI is what kills it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tsarbomb]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 4th 2010 2:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI Radeon HD 5450 focuses on multimedia features, neglects gaming]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</guid><description><![CDATA[@flux What content are you storing on an HTPC that is interlaced? Most of the HTPC folks I know are building for BD and native progressive content for playback. Of course, if you are capturing ATSC (OTA DTV) its questionable of you are really looking for a 1080P deinterlacer from a po-folks solution.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BarkingGhost]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 5th 2010 6:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI Radeon HD 5450 focuses on multimedia features, neglects gaming]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</guid><description><![CDATA[@(Unverified)  Most of the content I watch isn't interlaced, I was just pointing out the few drawbacks that the AnandTech article mentioned. Personally I don't watch much interlaced stuff, but I don't like the idea of having a card that can't even handle all the post-processing I might occasionally need. I might be overkill for what I watch on a regular basis, but a faster graphics card helps in other areas of computing, too. The PC I'll be building will be my main computer, but I'll have an HDMI run to my receiver for HTPC action. So I'll be getting at least a 5670 since I'll be keeping the computer around awhile.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fancy Shmancy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 5th 2010 10:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI Radeon HD 5450 focuses on multimedia features, neglects gaming]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</guid><description><![CDATA[From 54 seconds onwards the game and desktop are boxed on the monitor - they forgot to teach the monkeys about GPU panel scaling!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[frozenghost]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 4th 2010 12:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI Radeon HD 5450 focuses on multimedia features, neglects gaming]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/04/ati-radeon-hd-5450-focuses-on-multimedia-features-neglects-gami/</guid><description><![CDATA[this is so cheap i'm debating my choice to use an i3 for my media center build.
