nearly bit the bullit for the dual core sempron 2650, but a reviewer states it’s hd8240 graphics couldn’t run 1080p? Can someone shed some light on this please as AM1 are designed for HTPC like builds, so surely it should be capable? Professional reviews and personal reviews tend to differ, It’s to connect to my mini projector strictly for my stored movies which are all BD h264 format, but not all 1080p, but no point if it can’t run both like.

I don’t want to pay more than I need to for this which is why I want the dual core, but I still need the graphics to hold up.
 
Thanks for reply.

I suppose they could’ve been, but didn’t mention gaming in the review, nobody did actually lol, I just know some APU graphics are fine and some are not, I’ve just not experienced AM1 yet, well that be reassuring, don’t need to spend extra when not needed.
