Help me pick a non gaming video card for my Conroe setup...

[Duvie]

First while it wont be for gaming I would like it to be more for multimedia...DVD playback and sending HDTV content to my HDTV monitor....

Any DX10 support yet???

I like ATI in this market but if you have a suitable Nvidia candidate I will listen...

I like the 70-80 range max.....

This setup will be for multimedia work and basic ocing fun....no gaming....that is what I have an Xbox 360 for...

If it's not for gaming then why bother with the DX10 support?

Well I was under the impression that not all DX stuff is strictly gaming......If I am wrong I apologize....

id go with the last 7300GS. Nvidia plays movies better from my experience. And Driver support with nvidia is much better then ATI. :\

Just get a x1300 with the stuff you need.

I'd go cheap now, wait until you can get a videocard that is HDCP compliant...

 

[LittleNemoNES]

the x1k line is prob the most advanced out now.
