Hello, I am wanting to connect a desktop computer to a standard definition tv (480i) via an analog YPbPr component cable. My question to all of you is what video card would allow me to transmit the video output via an analog component cable to the tv? I have seen video cards (for instance, Geforce 9400) with a S-video output that also comes with a s-video->component cable. Would such a vid card work? If not, then is there a particular model (either ATI or Nvidia) that would do this?

Thank you very much for your time!

The video cards that have a DIN-looking connector sometimes support S-video and some include S-video and YPbPr. You will need to verify exactly what you're getting, and one of the best things to look for is to make sure the component video to DIN dongle is included with the card, because if it isn't, where the hell would you find one?

this is probably the cheapest thing you can get from a good brand.
