tv tuner

[beergut67]

Can anyone suggest a good HD tv tuner card for my computer:
Intel C2D E6750
4MB PC2 8500
Geforce 8800 GTS
GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L

Will I need to replace my currnet video card?
I am assuming that once this is set up i can watch my cable tv on my computer, is that correct?

You can use the PCI Express x1 interface (your board has 3) so you can still use your existing video card...
Hauppauge is a good brand... here is the link...

Here is the list of all of them PCI Express x1 from NewEgg

and you can watch cable from your PC... Have Fun

Maybe I can save you a little time. If you're looking for true HD viewing, as through an HDMI connection, they're not available. When I went this route, the best I could do was with S-Video. I didn't have a component input, that might give you a better picture. I actually wound up with an HD LCD on my desk in addition to my primary monitor. The TV picture quality is awesome, but when I use it as a secondary monitor for the PC, not quite as clear.
