From a HTPC aspect, which card is better? Must be passive with low power consumption & heat. Don't need HDMI as av pre-amp doesn't have HDMI input anyway, DVI-HDMI video is all that I need. Mainly picture quality for video (is there a difference still?) and video acceleration. Using MCE + FFDSHOW. Do you need to use specific movie players/codecs for videocard accelerated video?
