I'm looking to play MAME games and maybe some DVD watching on my TV. I currently have an Elsa Gladiac gf2 gts but no one sells the S-video VIVO module, and I don't play PC games anymore.
I ran some searches and it seems the best AGP cards for dual display are Radeons and Matrox's. They both have S-video out (or component for the Radeon with a DVI adapter) and are similarly priced. I'm leaning towards the Radeon 7500 as it seems to be more popular but I wanted to get more recommendations before I make the plunge to non-nVidia.
Alternatively I can just add on a pci card that has S-video out but everyone seems to say AGP is always better for TV-out.
Any help appreciated.
