Alright I have a little money left after I got my sg-2100, and I want to set my PC up for 4:2:2 and HD. I read a LOT in this forum that the Nvidia 6600GT series would do the job. is this still true? Or should I hold out for the 7600GT?

I found a 6600GT card at newegg that is in my price range, but I have to add a power supply because my crappy HP power supply is only 250W.

My PC is a HP Athlon 64 3300+ with 512 Meg RAM, onboard graphics. The card I am looking at has dual DVI outs, so that will be good I can feed my LCD monitor and Plasma TV at the same time.

This is the card I am looking at:

Doesn't seem to have a component dongle with it, but I was going to use the dvi output anyway.

Thoughts and ideas appreciated. I hope to pull the trigger on this this week, and then I'll be ready when I have the money for a DVB card/usb box. :cool:
