Gave us:

It looks fine as a PC display. The MythTV machine is running an FX5200 as
the video card on DVI out using a DVI/HDMI convertor. Nothing stunning I
know, but they accelerate video playback as well as a more expensive card.
Don't need a high end card for home theater machine. Good openGL support is
nice for the animations during music playback.



When and if you ever go with HD DVD or BluRay (BluTurd) you will
need a better card... an HDCP compliant one at that. Sorry. Just
the facts, man.

The good thing is... you won't be disappointed. They do HDTV modes
better than you think, and far better than that 5200.
