coaxial output? Im pretty sure you can take an old nintendo RF and just splice in a composite video wire. Then all you need is a video card with composite out or Svideo out and use an svideo to composite converter, eitherway its not going to look very good.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

if you are indeed looking for one with coax then your only option for pci would be an ATI all in wonder 7000 or 9200. Finding one of those is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

You would have better chances and much stronger options if you were aiming for composite video instead.

I think he wants the opposite, a card to put the PC on a TV through coax.

Hey
Just to clarify I want to output my pc to a old school TV via coaxial. That posting with the pictures what does that do?

In the long run probably easier and cheaper to find a new tv\monitor !! figure if it only has coax connector it's old enough that it probably is going to have problems fairly soon and spending the $ to find a rare over priced video card or all of the adapters needed to connect via Coax is probably going to result in the thing breaking soon afterwards anyway and will cost as much or more than just sourcing a newer option with newer connectors !
