New TV on order, HTPC is ready to go minus a graphics card so.....

HDMI to a 37" 1080p TV, without breaking the bank if possible.....what you got OCUK!
 
Budget about £150, if i can get away with a slim card i would like that so i have room for a TV Card in the HTPC, im not looking for uncompressed at the moment but may in the future
 
At work at the moment cant remember off the top of my head, it will take the height cant remember about dual slot, if it does it will mean i can add a TV card, im not so worried about gaming in HD just that it will fit the 37" res
 
Decided to use a double slot card, keep my TV card in my pc and then if i record etc i will play it in WMC and just transfer over the network to the shuttle
 
That is exactly what im after you sire are a champion :D, is that a mini HDMI? havnt seen one of them before? if it is ill be snapping that up sharpish
 
Grrrr i wanted the HDMI to do it all, Beginning to wonder if it will just be easier to split my aerial and then get a duel slot one for the HTPC and use the TV card in my main PC when i want to record.
Well, i have plenty to think about, cheers for the help one and all
 
In the end i went for the 5570 for my HTPC....and got a GTX 460 for my main rig to update my 8800GT, will get a longer HDMI and just play through the main rig when needed ....bad bad dice!
