Refer to Veffidas' post below. Couldn't have said it better myself. Get a Core2 duo with at least a 8 series nVidia card to solve your h264 problems, else just watch it in xvid released by Lunar. I for one cannot justify downloading h264 for the crazy huge files. If i want quality i will have to buy the DVDs and don't download fansubs as substitutes. That way i am also supporting the show that I am a huge fan of.
