    Hi all,

    I setting up a media net work, that basically is just one main server with all the media stuff on and then 3 clients that will feed 3 TFT screens individually.

    From recommendations, the clients will simply be 1Ghz Durons, with 256Mb ram, and firewire networking.

    Im after some recommendations of graphics card that will drive a TFT screen. They will only be used for media, just listing songs, playlist, playing windows media graphics, and maybe films.
    Im after the cheapest (as I will need 3!!) but one that will be easily up to the job

    Thanks all

    (ALMOST) any gf3, any gf4, any geforcefx, any radeon 8500, any radeon 9000, any 9100, any radeon 9200, any radeon 9500, any radeon 9600, any radeon 9700, any radeon 9800...
    Most cards have dvi on them nowadays... So far, I have seen one gf4 that doesn't have dvi on it. You should look at the card and when you buy it, make sure it does have it. You obviously don't care about gaming performance so almost any card will do.
