AMD’s Radeon HD 5450: The Next Step In HTPC Video Cards

HAWX
With everything but anti-aliasing and ambient occlusion enabled on HAWX, it’s playable at 1024 on everything at the GT 220 or higher level of performance. To get the 5450 to be playable, we needed to turn down the DX10 Sun and Shadow effects , which gave us enough power to be playable at 1280 without hurting the image quality too much more. Here the Radeon 4550 continues to win, while the GeForce 210 comes in a bit closer to the 5450 than it has in previous games.

Is this a test to see if people will read articles without pictures, because I think I failed... Maybe next time just pull the article until pictures/charts are ready.bonsai57 - Saturday, August 7, 2010 - link
The article states: The Next Step In HTPC Video Cards.(Home Theatre Personal Computer Video Cards??)
Am I right in this assumption?
If so, then why are the benchmarks more orientated towards gaming??
Obviously this is no gaming card.
Please give a true outlook as to how this card performs connected to a TV.
Is it OK? Is it Junk?
My intent for this card would be a connection with a plasma display or perhaps LCD.
Streaming video through the intenet such as Netflix or Hulu would be one concern.
Playback through a Blu Ray Player on PC another.
Perhaps my perception of this card and the subsequent review are irrelevant.
Please don't game a card that's meant for something entirely different.
Perhaps I have miscontrued the intent of this article, if so I appologize.
