[mythtv-users] Will I regret ditching my GF4MX?

*sigh*
I never thought selecting new hardware would be this difficult.
I'm building a new frontend/backend combo to house my new M-179s (2 of 'em)
plus my old WinTV 401 card that I've been using since Myth-0.7. My existing
video card is an AGP GF4MX that I'm very happy with. At first, I thought I'd
keep the AGP card in my old system, and get a new one based around an nForce2
board (IGP + MCP-T). However, the only board(s) that had the feature(s) I
needed were full ATX, and I had really been hoping to put together a SFF
system. So then I thought I might sacrifice 1 tuner and go for a 2-tuner
system built around a Pundit. Then I thought, well, if I'm going to forego
onboard GF4MX video, I might as well consider uATX boards or other SFF
systems with 2 or 3 PCI slots.
So, my main question is this: if I go with the Pundit or some uATX board with
on-board (non-Nvidia) TV-out, will I miss my GF4MX? (Note: a PVR-350 is *not*
in the budget at this point)
TIA,
JAC
