I'm converting my old machine into a HTPC. It's an AMD 3000+ machine with 1gb of memory, and I'm looking to add a video card that will support high def viewing on my plasma. Currently, when connected with a vga cable, high def videos I download stutter and freeze.
I'm looking for a video card that will have an HDMI output and will support flawless HD viewing, so that HD videos that I download and record using my OTA HD tuner card will look great. In the future (1-2 years), I plan on purchasing an HD-DVD/Bluray drive and put that in the machine, so hopefully the card will support that as well.
Any ideas or thoughts? PCI Express interface, and hopefully passive cooling. Price isn't a problem.
Thanks!
