tv-out on graphic cards
Well, looks like it's time to replace the Geforce 2MX, fan died on it and it just seems to be crapping out lately. What I want to know is how are the TV Outs on the GF3-4, ATI cards? The GF2MX was pretty crappy and wondering if it improved with the current versions.

Well anyways, just looking for a cheap card and tv-out is the most important feature i'm looking for.

Quote:Quote:With My Geforce 4600 - when i put on dual display with my T.V - i can not have media player or Power DVD on the TV side playing a movie, while i do something else on my actual monitor. - it just shows as a black screen - never had this issue with ATI - likely just something i am doing wrong.
Actually, I think you may be wrong, I think that the tv out is disabled during dvd playback for copyright reasons. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that I had read that somewhere. Can anyone else confirm this?Thanks...
I can play a DVD fine if i use JUST my t.v i had heard about that and tested it .
but same, just shows a black screen if i try the monitor and the T.V. Makes no sense to me, like if that doesnot work, i will just use my TV and copy it to VHS or what ever that way or use my monitor, and rip it.
As for the G4mx - kew kew - goo way to split up $100 VrOoMMMMMMMMMMMM!

First: 3DMark sucks
Second: What were the specs of the machines scoring 5000+?
XP 2000 256DDR
went and traded the MX in for a MSI GF3 Ti-200 Pure, got 4326 on 3DMark ;(
like your meory and cpu
i got a p4 1.8 - but dam sony used pc133 memory, so it killed any scores i got, compared to thos with ddr.
as for the card
Get the ATI - it is better for OVERALL use. - Nvidia - Gamers card. - my opinion anyways. (also based on past experience)
