Anyone recommend best TV card (preferably without extrenarl wiring to sound card for sound) for dually system?:P

PCI or usb(I hear usb ones support sound over usb...but slower then pci on trasnfer rate?)

Also..If you were using 3 monitors(2 on primary display, pci for 3rd) Can you stick All in wonder series of pci card and watch tv on that or in generic theory 2nd card will have no hardware accelaration?

Last thing, would you recommend matrox(yeah yeah) pci card or a generic nvidia tnt or gf2 mx pci card for the 2nd card?

Thanks for your time!

The Ati All-In-Wonder series has ben a good one for the price you get a video card with videocapture and composite inputs, as for the external wireing thing, the all-in-wonder can transmit over a daisy-chain loop between your cdrom and soundcard over the analog cable. Another good deal is the Matrox multi-monitor series, they have optional setup packages, and one includes a built-on tv tuner that spans every monitor hooked up to a Matrox card. Hope this helps :)
