[mythtv-users] Done with ATI

I've been really beating my head against the wall on some certain issues, mostly due to the mistake
that was buying an ATI card.

I'm done with ATI. The open source drivers look promising, but I'm not going to sit around waiting
for them.

I'd like to buy a nvidia card that:

1) is cheap
2) is pci-e x1 or x16
3) has HDMI out (preferably with a low profile bracket, not a must)
4) can render uncompressed 1080p video flawlessly
5) is passively cooled

If anyone has had experience with such a card, please let me know what that card is!

Or, if you've managed to check #4 off the list with any particular chip, let me know what that is -
that's an effective starting point.

Thanks a lot!
