Ok. Now, here is another question. I'm a little confused about doing a combo with FX5200 and the pvr cards. I know that PVR-250 doesn't have any mpeg decoder feature while as the PVR-350 have this kind of feature. If I buy the nvidia FX5200 card and PVR-350, will I still be able to use 350's mpeg decoding feature and have it tv-out on the FX5200 card?
Thanks,
Neil

They are all pretty much the same.  The chip is what is important, not
really who makes it.  Some cards varry, but by so little it really
doesn't make a difference for a HTPC.  If you have an option of buying
one with a fan or without, go for without if noise in the HTPC is
important, otherwise the extra air doesn't hurt.  Mine does not have a
fan, but I've made sure the case fan moves air over the heatsink enough
to keep the card and more important the cards around it cooler. I did
have one fx5200 go bad, probably due to overheating in my old case which
I filled to the max and it couldn't handle that.

hey guys, I'm about to buy an Nvidia FX5200 PCI with DVI interface at newegg.com to build my own mythtv. But found out that there are many models of this. Which should I buy please? Please respond. I only wanted a PCI version as my board doesn't have an AGP slot. Thanks, Neil _______________________________________________
