I'm looking to upgrade my ATI Radeon x1950 Pro (512 MB). I have a E8400 running @ 3.8Ghz and a Dell 2408WFP running at 1920 x 1200. Currently I don't play any games that are to graphics intensive. Mostly Team Fortress 2 and some Mass Effect 2 and Call of Duty WaW. I would like to be able to play...
Cool, thanks for the info.
Right now, I'm looking at getting the AVerMedia AVerTVHD Bravo. It's looks like a pretty straight forward Digital only tuner that should work under Windows 7.

What is currently the best sub $100 TV Tuner (or there abouts)? I'm looking at the Hauppauge HVR-1800, but the reviews on the picture quality are not stellar. I will be using the card under Windows 7 and primary will be watching over the air HD. Not interested in recording, so a hardware encoder...
I recommended getting the Dell 2408WFP through the following seller on EBay. I did, and had no problems at all. The box was unopened, and it is a revA02. Plus I have confirmed the 5 year warranty it comes with. Just be sure to ask him to send you the warranty information...
In regards to the Samsung 2493HM not having 1:1 scaling. Does this only effect things that outputing 16:9, i.e. gaming consoles? Or will this being cause other problems? I will probably only have the monitor attached to my computer for gaming and movie watching, and presumably my video card can...
I believe it also depends some what on how well your hard drive(s) handle NCQ. http://www.storagereview.com/ often compare a drive with and without the feature enabled.
Your best bet is GBPVR. I have the 550 Pro card from ATI also and it's what I use. It supports dual-monitors (it can be set to even start on the secondary monitor) and is free.

I went ahead and ordered the 5500s while the price was low, $210 + $33 shipping is a great price.
Will my onboard Creative 24bit Sound Blaster Live be alright for now?
The thing that is worrying me about the 5500s right now is will I be able to turn them down enough so it doesn't irritate my neighbors? I live in an apartment with pretty thin walls.

I'm in the market for a set of 5.1 speakers and I am debating between the G500's or the Z-5500s. Newegg has the 5500's for $219 right now ($50 off) so they are priced the same as the G500s, but I doubt the savings will last for much longer.
I won't have these in a large room right now, but a...
