1 Radeon question and 1 GF3 question

[SithSolo1]

Right now I have win2k, a 1ghz AXIA I have yet to OC and 512MB pc133 ram on an iwill KK266-R mobo. My current 3d card is an oem 64MB Radeon DDr @ 166/166 and no VIVO. Here is my question: What Should I upgrade to? The only game I play alot is CS but I just got Max Payne and Tribes 2. They are great but my card just can't pump out the graphics like I want.

I'm going to be living in a dorm soon but there isn't room for a TV, now on to my GF3 question, do any of them have TV in or do I need to get a TV Tuner card?

If I need a TV tuner card what should I get? Any thing under $150 is do able but I would prefer under $120

You can get an ATI TV-Wonder card for under $100. If you find one used you can usualy get one for around $50. They are one of the best TV tuner cards and well priced.

Ok, but what if I upgrade to a GF2 or 3 based vid card, then I can't use the ATI TV-wonder.

I have both those games and they run nice at 1024x768x32..what drivers are you running..can you overclock the radeon...
My radeon is a retail 64mg ..205/205..

you can still use the ATI tv-wonder with an nVidia based card.

Asus and Gainward both make GF3 cards with tv in/out.

yeah, the ATI TV-Wonder will work with just about any video card. ATI even lists the GForce 2 and 3 as being compatible.

I tried OCing it on my old system and got it too 192/192 but there were some tiny artifacts

I don't know what driver version it is but they came out 1-17-01
