10X DVDROM

[ARahman]

I found this while surfing on CompUSA's site.
Its a Shuttle SDVD-101 10X DVDROM Drive
and its $29.99 after a $20.00 MIR.
I have not bought it myself but if this is a good Deal I shall.
Do need to get a decoder card for this???

FYI this deal has already been posted search for DVD, or Shuttle or 10x.

depending on your system you wont need a decoder card (unless you want to do more that watch DVD). What Vid. card and speed processor are you running?

decoder card does all the work for you instead of the computer, allowing you to multitask, or watch DVD if you have a slower (400MHz) machine, with a vid. card without dvd hardware acceleration.

I think that if you have at least a 400Mhz Pentium II you won't need a decoder card.
