This is both an ATSC/Clear QAM tuner card, as well as a regular video card with DVI and HDMI outputs.

Save a slot, save some money!

Edit: Here is info on the 3D chipset on the card:

Looks like this card would be better used in a HTPC, rather than a gaming rig. Too bad AMD is limiting support for flash 10.1 hardware decoding to their 4000- and 5000-series cards, this is a 3000-series and should be capable of H264 decoding in hardware.

Page no longer exists. FYI I was severly disapointed in my AIW card I bought on clearance at frys for 39 bucks.. Driver support is awful. Win 7 support for the tuner didnt work at the time. Media center didnt recognise the tuner once installed.

I hope the recent drivers work but I gave up on mine and sold it for what I payed for it. If you run xp media center you may be good to go...

Good deal. Page is there for me. How are these cards working now? I though once everything went digital these cards were kind of useless. My card stopped working w. FIOS last year..Just got a bunch of snow...

Can I use this together with my 4850 since this is also a video card? I have an HTPC that I use for gaming and have been looking for a PCI-E HDTV tuner.

Anyone know if this comes with the remote? It looks like Diamond has a separate 'premium' bundle that does.
