Hi guys, I'm buying a new PC and was wondering about the video card I should buy.
The thing is most reviews are about gaming and my priority is to be able to watch HDTV (Probably 1080p on an LCD TV) connecting the card directly to the TV (HDMI to DVI Cable

My Main Priorities are:
1. 1080p capable to watch HD Movies on my TV (Mandatory).
2. Won't get obsolete for about 2-3 years.
3. Be able to do a little gaming (Medium quality settings on a 1680 x 1050 pixel monitor).
4. Low Noise.
Well if you want a decent playing video card as well as the very best HD you can get, you should take a look at this radeon HD 3850 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 814103049. You cant go wrong for only 169$ Thats a kickass product for the money

Thanks guys, I wasn't sure if a HD 3850 would be enough for what I wanted, I'll be buying it soon...
Why cant you do a little gaming on that hdtv of yours? saves you outputting to two places.
Well the thing is the computer won't be where I will be watching the movies, but is the HD 3850 capable of outputting to two places? Or Will I have to tell the video card to output only to the HDTV when watching movies?
