Is it possible to use two video cards at once such that one card feeds into the other? Ok, practical application. I want to build a PC based dedicated gaming/video/music station. So, I want one card, like an nVidia, dedicated to gaming. The other card will probably be an ATI Radeon with TV tuner capability and TV Out as well. So, now I can tune TV on the card, record stuff to the hard drive, then watch it played back from the hard drive on my 29" TV. But I also want to be able to play games and such on the nVidia card, with the output showing up on the TV. And if the nVidia has TV out, then yeah, that WOULD work. But I don't want to have two video cables coming out the back of the box. I want it as "plug and play" as possible. One cable out the back for TV, one for audio. Two cards--one for games, one for TV tuning and video playback. I know the cards (I think) that I want to use, but HOW to run both cards with both cards feeding into the same output (the TV), I'm not sure how to go about it. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, CrasH

What you want to do is possible is one of the cards is AGP & one PCI. Probably different brands also. If you want TV out on both cards then it would get complicated. No way to only have one cable coming from case because the outputs are external. What difference do multiple cables make anyway. Use an A/B switch to switch from one output to the other. Why would you want to bother with all of that though? Get an ATI 9800 AIW and be done with it.
