Pro vs. AIW
I am a newbie so I apologize for this question but what is the difference between the ATI PRO cards and the ATI AIW cards.
Basically I am just looking for the best card available for gaming/graphics no editing no watching TV just playing games. |

The ATI AIW are used to watch TV, capture, etc... while the Pro is used normally for gaming, etc.. Since you want a vid card for gaming/graphics go with a ATI Pro.

Something to keep in mind... with the old AIW 7500 and 8500's, they were clocked a little slower than the not TV tuner counterparts. Not so with the AIW 9700, it's clocked the same as the 9700 and performs the same, but has all the added features.
