Want to watch TV on my PC screen, can you get a good combined TV tuner/graphics card, or is it worth keeping the TV tuner and Graphics card separate.

I am running an AMD XP2400+

Your suggestions pls.

I bought a Pinnacle PCTV rave card which works really well. Only a mono out put but not that bothered...

You can get the Stereo version from here for 29.99 + p&p http://www.blankdiscshop.co.uk/acata...Section__.html

thanks steve,

ONly reason i am asking is that i know some Tuner cards suffer from alot of interference from the other bits inside the PC.

Any one got any other suggestions, especially cards with remote controls, cos i can be a lazy s***

I use a Leadtek WinFast TV2000 Deluxe. Long name, but its a superb card
Never had the same problems I had with my PCTV Rave.

Captures at full DVD res and stereo audio. I mainly use it for viewing PS2 and X-Box on my PC whilst I'm tinkering with them.

Cost me about £80 a while back but you can get them for c£35 now

Edit: Oh and it has a remote too

If you can receive Freeview then you might want a digital TV card for widescreen etc.

Love this, had it for months with no problems, comes with a remote, does recording and can now stream over a network.

Cheers
