So you say that even a monster like that 3.3GHz HT thing is a worthless hunk of junk. Any ideas on why it has that stutter to it?
Mmmm... bananas!

Long execution pipeline, shitty memory interface, high latency. Intel's drive to push clock speed led to a processor which wasted execution cycles like a Lamborghini wastes gas.
If you closed off every other process, you should be able to play most 720p encodes properly but even softsubs would probably screw it all to hell.

Well one thing about the P4 is they are the same socket (LGA 775) as the Core 2 Duo's - so if one had the money you could put a C2D on that mobo.

Considering the frequency and FSB of that P4, it is most likely a Socket 478 one. Dead upgrade path.

No LGA 775 board ever had an AGP slot. It's not even a most likely.

Not even close guys - it's an old 478 socket. Putt putt putt...

Oh and a 'my bad' - it's actually a 3.2GHz P4HT... like that -.1 is really going to matter...
