hi, all

I am putting up a system from scratch. It will be mainly used with Photoshop and a little bit of video editing (some introduction parts with COOL 3D Studio maybe). I am looking at two cards: GeForce3 Ti200 and GF4 Ti4200.

1. From the descriptions on pcusa.com, I think the Ti200 is great with Photoshop graphics, and the Ti4200 is better with audio and games (which I don't play). Which one should I get?

2. Either one has a TV-out, is that enough to output my litle video clips to my VX2000 camera, which has RCA (and S-Video) connections?

3. The motherboard has Audio out, is it enough for me to connect speakers to it?

Thanks,

1. Are Ti200 and Ti4200 the only choices you have? Coz there are other better cards for gaming and graphics at comparable price.

2. Yes.

3. You need a powered speakers (ie. speakers with built-in amplifier).
