TV Tuner - PC

AWOL_2

Hi

I am after a TV tuner for my PC. Either PCI or USB.
I have an old TV tunder card, but it doesnt have freeview etc and isnt very good. (4 years old)

I want a new TV card which can receive digital. Dont want to spend too much. Is PCI better than USB? which is the cheaper option.

Also i am in the process of getting a new graphics card, after much debate i am planning on buying a GEFORCE 6200 (£30) AGP 128MB. Old one was pants.

Anyway, is their any graphics cards that combine the TV receiving function or am i just asking for too much lol.

Thanks

pci or usb that is the question

I suppose a lot of people would say it doen't really matter,
PCI if you only got a pc but if you want to swap to a laptop then i would say the usb type,

they can retail from around £25 upwards


dont know about combining with a graphics card.

Hauppauge HVR 1300 is a good PCI Card....
Retail @ about £65....
But you can get new one without software or remote from Ebay...
Some guy has about 50 of em for sale for about £30 But It Now (Inc P&P)..
Fast delivery as well if you pay today you should get by the weekend!!
Wont post a link coz dunno if it allowed here... But search for the card on ebay and it will pop up.
The software and Manuals are all available form the Hauppauge website and you can see the full spec of the card there
I have had one for about 2 weeks now and it is great!!!
