Video Card Help

I want to purchase a new video card, but I also want a TV Tuner.

Is it a better value to buy one that has one incorporated, or buy the TV Tuner card separate?

If you suggest the latter option, what would you recommend?

Right now I have my eyes set on the ATI RADEON ALL-IN-WONDER. What do you guys think?

Also, what is RADEON exactly? How does it improve performance?

PCI slot availability is not an issue.
 
Well, speaking for myself, I would recommend a seperate tuner. This way when you get a new card (if you are like most of us, that would be every 6 months 🙂 )you can use the existing tuner card. I have an ASUS 6800 dlx that has TIVO and am thinking of getting an ATI tuner because I plan to upgrade my vid card a soon as they next big thing comes out. Radeon is ATI's latest kickass graphics card. Most of the reviews I have read have been favorable. I just question ATI's commitment. In the past they hype their cards but drop support rather fast for my taste. i like my ASUS 680dlx and think I will have it for at least another 8 months to 1 year.
