Nope, its a radeon 7000. I installed it and I get no video on boot, remove it and I get video fine. $30 paperweight, oh well. I'll just go to the switching my second display between my second monitor and my tv. Seems like such an inconvenience but then what can you expect - it's Microsoft.
Well I ordered a pci card already to give it a go. I'll try out some benchmarks before and after to see if there is any substantial bottleneck in speed.
New idea: If I install a second video card that has tv-out, I should be able to use that for my tv while my x1650 handles my dual monitors. I could look for any PCI video card with tv-out. Would this be functional in Vista?
Right now I'm using 2 displays each connected with DVI, the TV is there but not connected as I haven't found a solution. Crossfire seems like a pricey fix as I don't have a crossfire motherboard.
I recently setup a Hauppauge 1600 tv tuner to use with Vista's Windows Media Center. Now I want to connect my tv but I'm currently using dual monitors (DVIx2) with my ATI x1650XT. I've soured through ATI catalyst control center but it seems to be either second monitor OR tv-out. Is it possible...
