I'll be buying a new card to replace my 6600GT I have currently, I want a TV tuner and a decent card, THIS ONE (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102685R) seems nice, but I am unsure about ATi cards these days. The last couple I had only angered me, but I am willing to give a new one a try again...

Any suggestions? Sub-$200?

i personally think that hallmark is more afordable...190 bucks for a greeting card is just too much

A 7900GS or a X1900GT.
The 19 is a touch faster and might have a little better picture quality.
I think that these were coverd in anantech the other day.

The 7900GS doesn't have a TV Tuner...

Is the X1300 AIW on par with a 6600GT?

no seperate tuner? Don't you want a good one?
I don't think that hte X13 can keep up with a 66GT.
You need more beef.

Now that I look, the X1900 AIW is right at $200......

NM on this, I'll just continue using my current system for gaming, an old computer for TV and recording(just need a cheapo sound card), and buy some goodieson organizing my desk so I can more easily fit my laptop on it while doing all this.

I am spending my moola on a new G15 keyboard :P

you could buy a normal Graphiocs card and than add a tuner...
