I currently have an ASUS TNT w/16m and the best part about the card is the sets of video ins and outs via 2 s-video connectors and 2 rca-connectors. I'm looking for a new card now, as I'm having a lot of problems with some of the newer games I've been getting, so I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to finding a card (say, a GeForce or something with as much power) that has video ins (preferably) and outs (not as necessary) in both s-video and rca formats.

You're probably using the ASUS 3400 TNT. I've also got one but it's not in use at the moment.
ASUS has a GeForce cousin to that card called the V-6600 Deluxe that has identical inputs and outputs and it has the GeForce 256 GPU onboard. It listed for about $299 when first introduced but most likely has dropped significantly since the release of the DDR version and now the GTS. There is a good review of this card here (http://www6.tomshardware.com/graphic/99q4/991221/index.html).

For around $200 you can get a Voodoo3 3500TV. Not only does it have the inputs and outputs your looking for, but a TV tuner as well. Very (very) nice 3D as well.

Well, I'm off to go look for myself. If I should get back before I return, tell myself to wait for me.
Yeap, the 3500 should have the speed, and suggested retail since the 5500's are out is around 179.
I've got a 3000 clocked to the 3500's 183mhz, and I haven't been able to bog it down with any resolution below 1280x1024 in stuff like Hexen, Quake, etc.
