DM800HD and DM500HD

The question is, Is anybody can concretely supported by facts, that is, without subjective reasoning, to determine which type receivers better pictures in which segment, and to prove it?
I'm also still works specifically about the differences Broadcom processor responsible for generating and displaying an image, so what's the difference except the speed of 400 MHz MIPS Prozessor and that of 300 MHz, or as quantifiable difference in the picture if at all there? :thum:

Dual core ? Would be the difference on the CPU I think between DM500HD and DM800HD... not only the speed.
