I'm looking at (eventually) replacing my ATI AIW Radeon 9600 non-pro 
that's in my mythfrontend machine with an nVidia card ... any 
suggestions?  not looking for anything super-high-end, but something 
that's scalable ... i've got a crescendo systems transcoder, so i really 
only need VGA-out, since it converts from VGA->component (technically, i 
could get away w/ only 1 output, but i'm not sure if 1 output cards have 
all the tv-related stuff built-in, so i'm expecting to get a dual-head 
card anyway)

i orig bought the AIW so i could do a dual-boot on the HTPC and do 
capture stuff if i wanted (before I messed w/ myth and before i had a 
separate tuner card), but now it'd be really nice to throw that AIW in 
my desktop, esp since my DVD+/-RW is in that box now (after total 
restructuring of my network!:) and *hopefully* a dual-layer burner is in 
the not-so-distant future ;)

thx,
