Title: Video Card help. (Help me pick one)
Post by: Tritoch84 on November 23, 2004, 08:35:32 pm
Ok, I've read the thread that speaks so highly ATI's tv out, and i'm trying to buy a new video card ONLY for good TV out (S-Vid).

Well, that thread was pretty old that I was reading, and speaks of getting a radeon 7500, but those are to hard to find for me (the true Made By ATI ones) So if any of you could please recomend a cheap (cheap is the KEY word here) video card that has a good S-Vid out, please speak here! Any maker, and card, as long as it has good s-vid out (And is pretty cheap)

Also, I've been looking for a  SAPPHIRE made ATI radeon 7500, as these were made in the same factory, and some ati's that shipped as "made by" where made in the same factory. Someone on the board mentioned his had great TV out.

Uh, I'm sorry?

Last night I went a little nuts, and posted a bunch of replys because it was late and I was tired....

I'm just going to get the Sapphire 9200SE or the 9250.(from newegg)

Running around like a chicken with his head cut off.
