Some time in June, someone asked:

And Cedar responded:

Then Jarod chimed in and said:

My GeForce 4 Ti 4400 (purchased from a local shop for $130 or so, I 
think) has S-Video out, which results in a very crisp picture on my 
HDTV. And GF4Ti definitely has good performance as an attribute (okay, 
it's overkill :).

nVidia's drivers offer quite a bit of control over the picture they 
output to TV. You can push multiple resolutions, set refresh rates, and 
overscan.

ATI also has a rather nice DVI to component video adapter for their 
Radeons you can purchase, if you have an HDTV that can accept component 
video input.
