[alexbuybuybuy]

Hi people,

i am putting together a home theater pc on a budget,

i have a hp compaq slim 7100 with 3gb of ram with xp installed

i am looking to hook it up to me lg 50" plasma tv which has svideo and hdmi in ports

what would be the best pci express video card that has a hdmi out?

to be honest not 100% sure how the audio works!!!! if i get a video card with a hdmi will it have an onboard audo card so it do all in one

or will i have to link the graphics card to the on-board audio?


i look forward to your responses

I see conflicting information in that page. The picture shows the ATI Radeon HD 4350 512MB + LP Bracket VGA,DVI & HDMI but in the Description it shows: GPU Model: Radeon X1650 Connectors: DVI, D-Sub which is an old card...

i have just spoken to them and it is the ATI Radeon HD 4350 512MB that they have,

any opinions of that video card, has it got inbuilt audio?

cheers
