Neither the higher amount of ram nor the graphic card should have a measurable effect on mplayer playback (assuming both graphic cards can use xv or similar). > So far, it's been a step down from my old 1.2GHz Semperon chip with 512 > Mb ram and an old 4x AGP vid card. Please define "step down". Does -vo xv work for you (I assume you used it in your previous configuration)? Are you sure that one of the Phenom cores is faster than the Sempron? (I did not check.) MPlayer often can not take advantage of multiple cores.
