    I'm building a new machine for 3 monitors (day trading.) I also want to play some games on it, not too intensive (getting COD4 and/or Fry Cry 2 for free), but just to kill some time. I will need each monitor to run separate apps, the ability to use all 3 monitors as 1 gigantic screen would be...

    WinTV PVR 150 or Ati Theatre 550

    Well I have narrowed it down to those two cards. I want to record tv, watch tv, best quality possible ofcourse. Then burning on a dvd and playing on my dvd player is a must. I have a phillips divx player. I will probably be using media portal or GBPVR, I am too cheap to get sagetv. TIA.

    Which of these 3 dual channel packs is the best buy for me?

    Exactly what the title says. I understand that Mushkin, Corsair, value are both very good and I won't go wrong with either. Don't know much about Geil Value though. Will be running this in a DFI nF4 Ultra (or an MSI K8N Neo4, but thats a slight chance, very slim) and a 3000+ winnie. I may...
