Default TV Tuner Suggestions...
Dudes, I'm looking to buy a Cheap/Good TV Tuner Card for my PC, what I want is basiaclly be able to watch TV on my PC...capturing TV would be cool, but is not exactly essential in this case, I could survive with decent quality capture...

I already have a GeForce 6800 as my main video card, so All in Wonder kinda cards are not necessary....Any suggestions?

as cheap as it can get as long as I can watch TV on it...it doesn't have to have radio or none of that shit, but a remote could be useful...I've seen some sub $50 on newegg.com...dunno if they are any good tho... oh and I would want to be able to play my PS2 on it as well...

When you buy a *cheap* TV Tuner, make sure it's actually stereo. Believe it or not, some low end models are mono.

This is 100 dollars USD. ATI has a new tuner and it has all these features.
