c2d at 2.8GHz can handle 1080p AVC decoding even with libavcodec(the one in ffdshow) without too much problem if the bitrate don't go too high(2x~30Mbps maybe). libavcodec is single thread nowadays unless the AVC encode u r going to play is multi-splice coded.
the subtitle rendering thread will be dispatched to another core imo, so there's no problem unless u've already got shutter in the decoding process.

yes, NO advanced effect here. i'm just talking about plain text subtitle. i achieved my goal just with an Barton@2Ghz(with vsfilter i got 10%~20% higher CPU load and then met sub-async). the subtitle rendering process will never become painful for c2d imo.
