I play BD ISO file in PC1 under 1080p, its smooth. But play the same file on PC2 over PowerDVD8 is a bit 窒, play the file by PowerDVD10 is very 窒 to a level that cannot be acceptable.
So, for PC2, should I:
1. Upgrade CPU
2. Upgrade RAM
3. Forget about the PC and get a Media Player as upgrading the CPU will cause me at least $600+?
Well... at the end, I changed the CPU to Core 2 Duo E6500, 2.93G, the situation improved, but still a bit of lag when its comes to a fast moving action scenes. So, I add 2G RAM more. Now everything is smooth and perfect!
