Streaming 720p - hardware ?

Hi,

I'm looking for computer which can stream 720p25 from 1080i50 source. Do you have any recommendations for CPUs which can handle it ? I have no idea for SD streams we were using old Mac mini - i5 2.3 Ghz (dual-core, sandy bridge). But when I plug in HD via Thunderbolt it was nowhere near that ( 80% frames dropped at 100% cpu usage). I've been planing to buy a new Mac mini it is about 2,5x stronger (2,6 Ghz, quad core, ivy bridge) but I'm not sure if it is enough. Or I can buy some Xeon based 8 core server and put some SDI card in from Blackmagic Design. Those should be 3x - 3,5x more power full than Mac mini I have.

 

I don't wanna spent money on something which won't be strong enough so do you have any recomendations for HD streaming ? Is it true that Windows version of FMLE is better than Mac version ? Thanks.
