I shall soon by upgrading my video card and I was trying to decide which one to purchase. My gigabyte Ga-7va supports AGP 8x but I can't have a card with a heatsink on the back as it won't fit. I need a card with video in, I was thinking of a Ti-4200 or an FX 5600, but an ati card is welcome. I don't want to spend to much, please help!

Get a ti4400 atleast. The 4200 is based on a 4 layer pcb and the 4400 is a 6 layer, just like the 4600. Since it's almost the same as the 4600 your almost guaranteed to get to 4600 levels.

Or 9700pro or 9800 non pro would be your best option.

I'm not sure about the cost and as far as I know the ti 4600 has a heatsink on the back which means it wouldn't fit. Is there a 9700 with video-in.
