I would be careful, I have a decent mobo and when I first got that 2 years ago it choked on HD content, same goes for my sisters decent laptop which she bought recently. By HD content I mean just 720p.

You are probably going to want a $100+ mobo, preferably a 1156 or 1155 socket

What codecs are you using? I can't imagine you'd have too much trouble if you're using x264.

I'm not quite sure of the model, but it's a higher end Foxconn mobo.

And it was 720p Youtube content (which I believe is x264)

An ATI HD 4350 fixed all that though, 1080p no problem.
