the ati 650 is pretty much the top of the line. its analog cable is the best, and it has the capability for OTA HDTV. a little expensive though, and doesnt come with a antenna.

if you want something a bit cheaper that comes with an antenna, go for the ati HDTV wonder.

and in case your wondering, no i'm not a complete ati fanboy! just a coincidence...

Actually, that's not quite accurate. On top of the 650 having had hardware issues in the past, the Saber 2020 has better picture quality. Reference these articles:

If you want a good card with HD capabilities, consider this one:
