I've been reading about all these geforce cards with the DVI feature on them, whats does it do? And what kinds of advantages does it provide over say a GF card without it.

Thanks.

I forgot exactly what it means but I think it was DIGITAL VIDEO INPUT(?) As far as performance goes...nothing really. Unless you had loads of money and you were able buy an apple cinema display...and all those plasma or LCD monitors that cost more than some people's lives...you can't use it. That thing adds at least $30-60 to the video card's total cost so you're better off without one.

Nevermind. I just looked it up on the web. Stands for the abreviation for the french phrase:

Répondez s'il vous plaît (please reply).

>Répondez s'il vous plaît (please reply).

that's the direct interpretation, it's more commonly used as a slang way of telling you to "Please reserve as soon as possible". More like "ReSerVation Please".
