I watch alot of "LIVE" TV online. When watching live TV online I connect my pc to my Panasonci VT50 tv to watch these. My computer is about 25 ft from my TV so i have installed two HDMI® Over CAT5E / CAT6 Extender Wall Plate (Pair) - Single Port (1P) - White http://. which works excellent. I want to upgrade my GPU because of how loud the EVGA 01G-P3-1302-LR GeForce 8400 is. Since i am going to purchase a new GPU I would like to know what type of GPU would work best for my needs that i mentioned. How reliable is the live streaming video on the GPU. I do notice that some times the steaming live video freezes so i am wondering if it is because of my current GPU is not fast enough?
My internet connection speed is at 5 mpb.

Any thoughts, comments would be great!


APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: 2 Weeks

USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: I watch alot of LIVE sports online and LIVE streaming tv shows. I do a little gaming.

CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: I currently have an Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz

OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: I have the following: ASRock H77M LGA 1155 Intel H77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard, Patriot Viper 3 16GB 2X8GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 10-10-10-27 1.5V Memory Kit - Black Mamba, , XFX ProSeries P1-450S-X2B9 450W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Core Edition V2 Full Wired Power Supply and a LOUD EVGA 01G-P3-1302-LR GeForce 8400 GS 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Ready Video Card

Umm I think you are asking about which graphics cards are compatible with your current setup. If so, almost all modern graphics cards have at least one hdmi output. I don't really know what you are looking to spend on this, but if you gave me a price range I could surely find you a card that suits your needs.

I will look into the Nvida GT640 2GB.

rjvitt, yes i am looking for something that is compatible with my current set but also have good specs for what i am needing.

my bad, i forgot to post my price range. my price range is between $30-$150.

Thanks you both for your replays.

Does anyone else have other recommendations or thoughts about if live streaming video has any strain on the graphics card? if so what spec's should i be looking into.

Since i have no control over the video would live stream tv be encoded?

thanks.
