Hey everyone. I had a quick question for you all. I was looking into buying a tv card but I wanted to get one with good image quality. And do tv cards come with component cable or just composite? And what about PCI-e. Any answers would be great.

PCI-E the only one I know is an ATI Theatre550pro card. Best image quality is Hauppauge 1/2/350 series, ATI Theatre550pro is a close section. All the cards I know are just Component and no composite. The input must be a component, they may have the ability to plug in composite for video game consoles and the like

I took your advice and looked around newegg. I figured this one would be the best because it's like video. I dont really need audio since I have an X-fi so i might as well use that instead. The reviews were pretty good on it. What do you think?
