Help setting up a HTPC
« on: November 02, 2024, 07:24:51 am »
Hi, There.

I want to upgrade my HTPC, once it's not powerful enough to play 4K HDR 60Hz videos without stuttering.

Would a Rizen 7 or Rizen 9 processor with integrated graphics run the videos "smoothly", or do I need an external GPU?

If an external GPU is needed, could you tipp me off about the graphic card?

Thanx in advance.

A 7000 series or better Ryzen iGPU with a "real" HDMI 2.1 port can do 4K/120hz so you might as well upgrade to that if you are getting new hardware.

I have an i3-12100 in my HTPC, and it has no issues with 4k video.
