No, my ECS Liva is working for me. Yeah I kicked the resolution down to 
a strange in-between 1600x900 mode thinking it might help with the 
deinterlacer issue. But I am sure it would work just as well at full 
1080p. It's driving a 50" display and we've been happy with it.

I don't think I'll put one in the living room though when the frontend 
there dies. I have more room there and more tolerance for fan noise. 
I'll take the Nvidia output.
