Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm planning to build a combined front- and backend for my girlfriend<br>
and I need a recommendation for a graphics card.<br>
<br>
Are there PCIe cards with good tv-out quality (S-Video, SD) available?<br>
I remember reading that newer cards are not as good as the old 5200<br>
series. I tested a 7900 GS and quality was really bad.<br>
But what about newer cards or other cards than NVIDIA based ones?<br>
Are there cards that can be recommended?<br>
<br>
A second option would be to use an AGP capable mainboard and use an old<br>
5200, but it would have to be a microATX board. And that's also a<br>
problem, because all boards seem to have PCIe nowadays. Is that true or<br>
are microATX boards with AGP still sold?<br>
<br>
Buying a new TV and going digital is currently no option. <br></blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

Thanks,<br>
