i was wondering if it was possible to purchase two video cards, one with 7600gt and one "all in one" types, install, and run them simultaneously?

if not, what is the best option to have a decent video card (7600gt quality) and a tv-tuner?

does this have a hdtv tuner? i was doing some research and noticed that none of the tv tuners on newegg claim to be able to receive a hdtv signal. Is there separte piece of hardware that i need?
 
No it don't, the one I'm using is the DVB-T 100 (pci not USB version) because it was the easist/cheapest way ways I could think of to connect my digital sattalite decoder (SKY) to the pooter, because my telly blew up and the choice was get telly repaired £75+ or tuner card £26 as I'm a tight fisted old git, no contest, check out their site dude this one may be the kind of thing that serve your purpose http://www.kworldcomputer.com/product/pci-e/001/PCI_E_Turbo.htm

but unless you have a:an SLi mobo and even then I don't know wether you could run a 'normal' graphic card in one slot and a tuner card in the other, any one out there wanna comment ?, seems unlikley to me, or b:run it as the main card and then use an AGP card for gaming which might be possible on a mobo such as this http://www.legitreviews.com/article/377/1/
