Hi, my friend bought a 22 inch full hd led monitor from dell. His deesktop is atholon x2, GIGABYTE GA-M61PME-S2P desktop with 2 gb ram. He is interested in watching full hd 1080p movies in it. Which is the cheapest graphics card that can support the lag free movie playback in this setup?
Thanks in advance.

IMO a 6670 1GB will have you future proof for a few years. It just costs about 5.5-6k or so.

I'd suggest HD6570 ~4.4k for hassle-free playback or even HD6450 ~3.1k will do the job.

yes HD 6450 is excellent choice but you may be able to save cash as Almost all lower tier of HD6*** is rebadge of HD5***.

its not for game play so you can take 1GB also safely.

Not true.. only HD6770/6750 parts are rebadged. HD6450/6570/6670 are completely new parts with updated UVD (3.0) :)
