I am in the market for a new video card but don't know enough about what is out there to make an informed decision on what to buy (even though I have spent countless hours reading up on different cards, support, and problems.)
What I need is something with ViVo.
I would like to play games on my TV
I have no desire to play dvds from computer to TV but, would like to import video from VCR or DVD to computer (I have top a of the line Sony reciever, dvd, and vcr so any outputs would be had)
Don't think that I want the performance drop of going with an AIW (unless it is not noticable), btw would a separate tv tuner card hinder gaming performance when not in use??
Gaming is of importance so that is a big key.
I don't want to spend more than $250 but would if a little more money gives a lot more value.
I will install onto MSI K7T pro2 mobo
duron 800@92#
on board sound (that is next, just got rid of SBL 5.1 because it blew)
256M PC133
Replacing a Diamond Viper V550 just to give you an idea how long I would like to keep card.
