Leadtek tv tuner cards

Winfast XP 2000 or
Winfast XP 2000 Deluxe or
Winfast XP 2000 Expert?

Does the 10 bit (expert) produce a much higher quality than the 8 bit (deluxe, normal) tv tuners?

Which one would you recommend?
 
is it worth it to get the expert over the deluxe, since the expert has a 10 bit decoder? Does image qaulity improve a lot?
 
in that case i would go for it. i mean a tv tuner is gonna last you a very long time so you might as well pay a few extra bucks in the long run

Too bad it can't tune HDTV signals....or it would last even longer...

For any of you that CAN order the Expert (where the hell is anyone selling it in the US?!?!) definitely do it. The Deluxe is a fine card, but the bt878 chipset is really long in the tooth. The only real advantage is that its well supported dscaler and other programs. The new 10 bit cards are nice...I've used the cx2388x and philips 7133 and both of capture more detail than the bt878.
