DXVA question...

So, now that MPC-HC has DXVA support, I'm wondering if my dated hardware can handle HD vids better...

Caveat: this machine is old! It has a nvidia 7600GT gpu, and an Athlon XP 3200+ cpu.

Will DXVA offload to that gpu or is it just not supported?

Is there a way to have both the gpu and the cpu cranking in tandem? I think that if both could be working there would be enough power to process 720p easily, if not 1080p. But AFAICT, offloading video processing to the gpu via DXVA is sort of an "all or none" prospect.

Is this correct? Is there a FAQ or wiki or something about DXVA somewhere that I could read up on these topics?

TIA...
