I'm looking to put together an HTPC based around an a PVR 150, XCard and Tvedia front end software outputting to a CRT TV. I've managed to confuse myself over what graphics card to use.
XCard needs to use the overlay feature and will be handling any MPEG decoding and Tvedia needs DirectX 9.0 support so I'm thinking a fairly basic graphics card should suffice, say an Nvidia FX5200 or ATI 9550SE?
However, I'm open to suggestions here and would be interested to know what other forum members think.
Thanks in advance,
Big_Vern
