$40 ?  Well...that  probably wins.   :-)  Assuming  no support issues of
course.  I'm usually of the mindset of dedicated function, so I personally
would shy away from a solution of asking my primary video card to also
handle my encoding, but that is probably philosophical rather than practical
in today's world ( I still believe in vi too ).
