on my nforce mb, I've tried both an MX4000 and an FX5200. The only

noticeable diagonal lines across the screen with s-video out (which I
use exclusively). I second the note on ati - tried it, couldn't even
get it to work.

Interesting in my mythbox I'm using an AGP fx5200 without any of that.
The reason I like the Nvidia based cards is that the TV-Out is active at
boot so you can do bios updates as necessary not sure if ATI supports
that but it was a selling feature when I bought the card. As far as
PCI/PCI-E go most PCI-E boards come with 3 or 4 pci slots so if you buy
the PCI-E card and find it unworkable you can switch it for a PCI
version. The new box I'm planning will be using PCI-E

I'm using an ATI 9200SE (AGP), and the video is active at boot.
I have some issues with rolling horizontal distortion (_very_ minor)
that are caused by the svideo cable (the old S-video cable that I had to
replace worked fine with no distortion).
