I have a AIW radeon (old school (if you can say what) radeon) and I love having a tv tuner in my computer, mostly for video capture from the other inputs (the RCA and SVID) and i use dual monitors (via a voodoo3, that i can safely say old school to)

But the problem is that i want to upgrade to a 9600 pro (or better)

so my options (as i see them) right now are:

-seperate PCI TV tuner with a Radeon 9600 pro/xt (if the price is right on the xt)
-all in wonder 9600 pro
-no tvtuner, stick with a real tv and just grab a 9600 pro
-external video input box, stick with a real tv and just grab a 9600 pro



what would you suggest and why?

keep in mind this upgrade is in a few months when the r420s come out (i'm a college student w/o a steady income and i left my real TV tuner back at home)

    At first thought, you seem like you would be most happiest with an All in Wonder.

    Get the 9600 and a TV tuner (ATI brand if you'd like for $40). I myself am in the same boat (only over the 9800 Pro) and I've come to the conclusion that it both costs less/get more to get them both seperatly.
