Hi All I was thinking of upgrading my ageing X850 XT graphics with the X1900 AIW card which I have seen advertised for £85 inc. shipping. My question is is it worth it? Now I realise there are much better cards than this around which when added with dedicated TV tuner card will give me better performance. However please in bear in mind that I use my PC mainly for video editing and only ocassional gaming (Need 4 Speed, Serious Sam). The other thing is the maximum resolution my monitor will support is 1280 x 1024

this is just my thought based on this article and based on the fact that you say you dont game much and that the games you do play (serious sam need 4 speed) do not need a really powerful graphics card
i dont think its worth 85 pounds for the minor increase in performance if you really want the tv tuner, I would just buy a tuner card
