Ok I have a GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H mobo and it has an on board ATI Radeon HD 3200 video. Turns out i cant use the onboard hdmi and dvi at the same time only hdmi/vga or dvi/vga. So I need a 2nd video card, few questions...

First I guess a rundon of the setup in addition to the mobo Im running Vista ultimate 64bit, an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ Brisbane, 4x1gb DDR2 1066 ram.Iits going to mainly used for media stuff movies, photo editing, music, some 3D CAD (solidworks) and maybe light gaming. The 2nd card will mainly only be used to do desktop stuff.

1. Should I go with ATI since I allready have ATI on board?

2. I want to get a tv tuner card are there any good/cheapish video/tuner cards out there?

3. If I go with a non ATI card like geforce for example will I have any conflicts?

Here 2 I was looking at
