I have two monitors that both use DVI or VGA. I would PREFER to be using DVI on both of them. I am building my first computer and I was wondering if there is either a tv tuner that would ACCEPT coax cable in and then DVI out to two monitors, or if there is a video card that has 2 DVI outs and an input of coax cable for tv. I don't have a tv in my room and would prefer to watch it on a HD monitor rather than buying a new tv. This would also save me an extra PCI slot. I am not a gamer, so the graphics card part of it doesn't have to be amazing with a physics processor or anything since the most I'll need it to do is play the digital/analog signal for tv and maybe a flash game or two when I get bored. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.If you just don't know if it exists please tell me that. I have looked and am unable to find anything like that.Sure, there are many video cards with Dual-DVI output connectors.

Discern WHETHER your motherboard supports PCI-Express of AGP and buy the cheapest card from this list:

truenorth- thank you for your advise. last night i actually sent a message to them asking if they support dual monitors but they do not. if i were to use one of their products, it will only work with one monitor. if you know any other companies that might have something, please let me know and i'll check it out.Here's a device that converts cable to vga. Is that more along the lines of what you want?

chris.mccorkhill, As to further manufacturers that may offer a product to suit your needs i regret to say i can not (from personal experience) suggest any others. However were i in your shoes i would link to the following URL and have a look at what is offered and if there is nothing there i would take a few of the leaders in the field IE: "NVidia" and try to call them--always better in my opinion than e-mail--because the opportunity for clarification is greater and the instances of misunderstanding should be lessened. http://www.geeks.com/products.asp?cat=VCD It may be that what you seek is not available but WITHOUT more searching i wouldn't give up yet.Don't be shy to ask them --even if they don't make it --if they can suggest some other manufacturer that might. good luck ,truenorthjust out of curiosity, why are you trying to keep a pci slot free? What are your plans for it? Don't keep it free just to have a spare, you'll never use it. How many pci slots are actually available?truenorth- thank you and i will call try to call NVidia tomorrow between my summer classes that i'm taking to see if they offer something that would help me.
