Which one is better?? If you don't know about the Asus card, then you probably are not going to help me out much.

If you do know, please LMK what you think.
 
Tom's Hardware did a review on it, said the AIW is better overall, but the Asus is better for gaming.
 
After reading Tom's review, I was sold on the the Radeon AIW. I want one for editing and it seems the way to go for video quality.

The V7100 is very fast in gaming, but the AIW is the way to go for video editing.

A lot of sites reviewed the AIW, but most just benchmarked it for gaming, not video capture. Tom's article was very informative and he shot camcorder footage to compare the two, and AIW won.

A very good site I found where a lot of AIW users go to is:

Rage Underground

Lots of info, reviews, and tips from users like us.

 
Hahahaha, come on, you don't remember tom's hardware site?! =) hint: tomshardware is in the url.
 
Greetings All,

This is really one area that ATI really "shines" in. I didn't read the review but I can't imagine that Asus can offer a products that does video in/out using composite and s-video inputs, video capture and dvd capabilities. Plus ATI has been in this video capture stuff for a long long time.

 
I have heard conflicting reports about the Geforce 2 MX. Some reviews say that there is a dual-monitor card available, others say it is only a monitor and LCD, and still others say that it is a Monitor + TV.

Is there no end to this maddness?

I would gladly buy a Geforce MX for $140 if it supported dual CRT monitors.

Any help here from the anand forums crew?

thanks.
 
The Geforce 2 MX comes in several flavors:

1) VGA output only [$91 is the cheapest - found on pricewatch]
2) VGA + TV (usually S-video) outputs
3) VGA + DVI (analog flat panel) outputs
4) VGA + DVI (digital flat panel) outputs
5) VGA + DVI + TV outputs

It gets confusing when both reviews and ads mention the Twinview features of the MX, but then review or try to sell case #1. Twinview in case #1 is useless.

The case you are looking for (monitor + monitor) is supported by the eVGA Geforce 2 MX Plus. It sells for $138 + S/H on pricewatch. It may be supported by other vendors; I have not checked.

 
Yes- I have a Leadtek WinFast DH pro (DH stands for Dual Head- stolen from Matrox?)

Anyway. It uses TwinView to two monitors and also has TV out.

I bought the CardExpert GEforce 2 MX Twinview Plus Golden Sample. (yes, that is the name for the card..)

it has 5.5nx ram, dual VGA action ( I am running 1280x768 on my 21" monitor, and 800x600 on my 14" monitor. rock!)

I like it. You can get the card at kdscomputers.com
