Can anyone recommend a good low powered nvidia gpu card for a myth frontend. I am uk based, and looking for an upto date card which is very low powered for 1080p/VDPAU. The frontend is also a slave which does most of the recording. What up to date GPUs should I be looking for?<br>

</blockquote></div><br>anything from nvidia on their current range (600-series) should be perfect.<br>which drives you use is dependant on the card you have bought; i beleive phoronix did a test between the nouveau and offical nvidia drivers and it was card dependant on which performed substantially better. the lower end cards generally seemed to be better on the nouveau driver.<br>
