I just bought a 20.1" widescreen Viewsonic VX2025WM (my baby) for my computer to basically game with. The jump from a 15" 4:3 to this! Unreal. Anyway, I realized today that it is bigger than my tv in my room so I said this was the absolute best place to ask this question. I would like to watch tv on my new baby. I'm not sure how tv tuners work and stuff as I have never even seen one. From what I've heard, Internal computer tuners are better quality than external. My monitor only has 2 ports, DVI and VGA. DVI is being used by a 7900GT so I assume the tv tuner would hook into the VGA? Anyway I have no idea how all this works so please inform me as to what I will need in detail. In my PC i have the x16 port used by the 7900GT, a free x1 port, and several PCI ports (none used) so that would be fine with me if it would be better quality. I have no preference on external or internal tuners, if possible give me both sides. I'm going for quality, but not trying to spend over ~$100, thank you. Thank you, Justin.
