1.	Solve : What's the best, and least expensive way to get TV on my PC??
Answer» I want to get a TV tuner card for my PC, but I don't know what to get. Any suggestions regarding brands, or specific model numbers? Also, what about those USB TV tuners? Are they any good? Also, if I were to purchase a TV tuner by ATI, for example, would it conflict with my current graphics card, which is by Nvidia?check out the reviews on tv tuner cards on www.newegg.com http://tinyurl.com/5doe4cOK, thanks for the link, but that doesn't answer my QUESTION about any possible CONFLICTS from using a graphics card and a TV card from two different manufacturers.Quote from: roccenstein on May 19, 2008, 05:32:36 PM OK, thanks for the link, but that doesn't answer my question about any possible conflicts from using a graphics card and a TV card from two different manufacturers. The only conflicts you may have would be in what your MBoard supports and the OPERATING system itself... We don't have that info. Check that DOCUMENTATION but you should be good to go otherwise.Don't quote me on this, but generally the TV-tuner card just NEEDS a minimum DirectX level of support from the Graphics card.
