These GPUs feature a new video engine that includes a bitstream processor (BSP) and an improved programmable video processor (VP). The BSP offloads the 100% of the CABAC and H.264 decode process from the CPU allowing playback of “full spec” HD DVD and Blu-ray movies. The new VP also has more advanced video post-processing algorithms which improve video quality.
