    What graphics card would you recomend off ebuyer from the ATI Radeon section

    I shouldn't really need anything more than 64mb as its only going to be an HTPC but it MUST have TV out/ S-Video out.

    Cheers guys

    Please close, its been ordered now.

    I recently used a Radeon 7000 in a new PC build where the person required TV out - worked great. Its not much for games but that wasnt needed.

    I don't care for the make either but the main aim was to get a CHEAP motherboard, with 6 channel sound. That was the cheapest so i bought it.

    actually pickup that graphics card to upgrade the Voodoo3 in the HTPC rig here from ebuyer - the tv-out is great. Usually to the quality is hit and miss, but here there's no worries.
