I will be purchasing two new LCD TV for my Bed and Living Room. I will also be
Perching a graphics card for the set in my bedroom.


I am considering these two

Panasonic Viera TX26LXD600 LCD HD Ready Digital Television, 26 Inch £1,195h

Samsung LE32R74BDX LCD HD Ready Digital Television, 32 Inch
£699 - £849

So I need a graphic card, personally I have no idea, I just heard that G-Forces are
Good.

Budget: up to £100

Gaming: Occasionally, NFS and Pro Evo, other when friends are there but that is about it. Would be good though for that new NFS Carbon.

TV-Out: Absolutely Vital, the best connector and quality possible, as I am a Movie addict. Watch loads on Movies and series using the TV-out facility have on my G-Force 4.

Can you please Help, or give a link where I can research it myself.

ThankX
 
with a £100 card i doubt youll get good resolution/FPS. what res is are the screens?

you will be looking at spending around £200 minimum.

maybe get the MSI 7900GTO 512mb card, its currently going for 180 qiud plus VAT, a good card and highly recomended on here (by the nVidia fans anyway) either that or a x1900/x1950 card but then again they wont be £100
 
sapphire x1950 pro for around £130 would be about the best you can get while sticking close to your budget although as mentioned above the MSI 7900 GTO is much faster and approx £50 more.

Both cards are capable of running the above mentioned games at decent resolutions (1280x1024) if your a movie freak though you might want to consider the ATI x1950 pro as it supports HDCP, the 7900GTO does not.

PS: whoooot 100 posts :P only taken 2 years :D
