For regular hdtv viewing over dvb-s2 this cpu should be more than fast enough. There are people running the eHD with a 700mhz Pentium 3 i have heard.

- does eHD support 1080p ?
Nope. Max is 1080i@60Hz. And for normal viewing, 1080P is still a thing in the very long future (for your information, we just got HDTV since March) and it would be only be interesting for the HDDVD and BluRay movies.
yes, I mean hdtv rips, hddvd/bluray content
- which CPU do you have and what about cpu load during of decoding
1080i ?
I have an AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ with AMD Cool'n'Quiet enabled. Currently it runs on 1Ghz (because of the AMD Cool'n'Quiet) and vdr has a CPU load of 15% through 25%.
may be you know - does Pentium 4 3 GHz will be enough ?
- is it hard to buy this card in Europe ?
I ordered it online through Reel Germany. Ordered it Thursday, payed it the same day using IBAN information and UPS delivered it yesterday :)
fine :)
