Unless you are capturing a 640x480 at 30 FPS with a bit rate of 1MB/sec, you will not need anything over 500MHz.Originally posted by: edplayer
Jeez, 3GHz P4 to encode with Divx! Is that right? Isn't there other codecs that need less cpu power to work real-time? Can you use xvid or WM9 or RM9 with this card?
