Well besides the whole intel amd batle here...

how is the video card? what should i expect out of it.

[devildog]

the all in wonder isnt gonna perform as good as a regular x800. unless you really want all the nice video in and out features, id drop it.

consider pci express if you want a really fast vid card, they make most vid cards now a days in both agp and pci xpress, so its all preference from there.

this will probably kick off an ati nvidia battle

correct
reguardless of which you choose (ATI/Nvidia) go to www.omegadrivers.net for drivers.

[Echo419]

Fire, why use their drivers? Would they have the correct drivers that would make the TV tuner n such work on the all-in-wonder?

[CrimsonTurkey]

Personally I'd rather get the regular X800, save a bit of money, and buy a seperate TV tuner, you'll get better performance in both graphics processing and assorted Tv related goodies.

[Echo419]

Well its already ordered.

AIW is listed under compatible cards, I have not personally used a AIW so I cant say for sure.

there drivers are tweeked to give you more FPS in gaming. And I can honestly say they do just that, I gained quite a few FPS after installing these over stock drivers.

[Echo419]

Thanks fire, will do.

[wad04]

actually the 6800gt i think is one of the best video cards out there right now.
