first post on these forums =)
I'm not sure what is meant when people say that some tv cards have built on encoders/decoders. I've read that some cards (while you watch TV) take up to 60% of your cpu usage. If there's a built in encoder it won't require the cpu resources?
Also, what are the differences between these two cards?

i seem to see that people prefer hauppauge cards..
also, ive also been meaning to upgrade my graphics card, so IF i get an all-in-wonder, how will the TV quality differ? will it be better? worse?
i guess basically my question is:
leadtek expert vs hauppauge pctv-radio vs all in wonder, which has BEST picture quality (tv)
