[mythtv] TV-Out on a big screen TV

I'm piecing together a new box for mythtv.  I need to buy a video card 
that can output to my 43" 9:16 TV with excellent quality (well, at 
least better than the VCR.)  From the mailing list, it seems a few 
people are using the GeForce2 MX 400.  I also read that Isaac was using 
such a card before upgrading to a Gainward GeForce4 Ti4200.  (Why did 
you need to upgrade, Isaac?)

Does anyone have MythTV setup with a big screen TV? Is the GeForce2 MX 
400 robust enough to handle the output? Would a GeForce4 Ti4200 improve 
MythTV's performance?

Thanks,
Jason
