I've looked at getting a decent sound-card with enough channels, Also thought about buying older video card's with s video and VGA output, But having trouble figuring out hardware that will work on a newer motherboard. It will be used to play or stream 4-6 video's simultaneously to old-school analog modulator board tv channels. Help would be appreciated, Here is a link to the rig I am thinking about building for it http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1FIdY . Just need help with figuring out how to have the two SLI 670's but also be able to output to analog rca (red yellow white cable).

Thank you your help would be appreciated.

I have tested a Pentium 4 520 HT (2.8 GHz, 1 MB L2 Cache, 800 MHz FSB, 32-bit, 90 nm), 4 GB RAM and HD 7790 on YouTube full HD 1080p videos and the CPU usage was between 5 and 10%. However, that was the result in Internet Explorer 9, 1080p full HD didn't work in Chrome, but the videos run like a charm on IE 9 and the CPU only needs to provide 1/20 ~ 1/10 of its performance for that to be accomplished. So, CPU wise, a Pentium 4 520 HT is going to be enough for playing and streaming 4 ~ 6 full HD 1080p videos at the same time in Internet Explorer, if backed up with enough RAM and a good video card!
