http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users</a><br>><br><br>Are you sure that was your issue? That's the first I've ever heard<br>that. Everything I can recall ever reading indicated that the 5200
<br>cards are perfectly fine for mythtv at HD resolutions. I can't say<br>firsthand, as I have a GeForce 7100GS. Since I needed PCI-e only<br>newer chipsets were an option for me.<br><br>Tom<br>_______________________________________________

</a><br><br><br>Hi.<br><br>I know for sure that it is a problem with pixel clock bandwidth on the DVI<br>connection for all 5x00 series cards, I think VGA is OK though.<br><br>At work I tried for a long time to get a 5700 series card to display the
<br>native resolution of 1600x1200 on an LCD monitor.<br>By telling the driver to ignore EDID information I managed to get the card<br>to display at this resolution, but this resulted in pixel crawling and<br>flickering images.

<br><br>I returned the card and got a 6200 which works great. I just have to deal with a grayscale OSD :(<br><br>Mitchell<br>
