To be clear, there is no 450 mbps HD video to stream. BluRay requires about 7 MB/s (55-60 mbps/sec) of real throughput. Many HD media files are between 5-8 mbps. Note this is real throughput, and not link speed. Throughput is much lower than link speed.
802.11n can stream most HD MKV files, even in the 2.4 ghz band. Full Bluray is possible with some devices, but generally you'd want 802.11ac (and use 5 Ghz). Some mobile devices support 802.11ac.
Interference/throughput variation does create problems though, especially in the 2.4 ghz band.
