NINintothevoid · May 2, 2003, 01:10 AM

Hey, I'm getting tired of my usual 30 fps in unreal tournament 2003 and im looking to upgrade to a newer ATI card and my price cap is basically $250. My specs are getting a bit old school, so if im not gonna see too much of a difference between a 9500pro and a 9700 on my rig, i'll go with the 9500. what wondering is, is there any other card besides the All-in-wonder that has video in so i can keep my camcorder as webcam rig goin? Thanks.

Specs:
Windoze XP
Athlon XP 1800+
KG7-RAID Mobo
512 2100 DDR Ram
Radeon 7200 64 Meg VIVO
SB LIVE 5.1

If all you want is video in then the all in wonder is overkill. Go for the all in wonder if you want to watch tv on your computer if you are looking for video in (just to capture video from your digicam), then look for cards that are denoted with VIVO
Did a search on google and here are some that come up

I would suggest getting seperate cards. TV cards basically can live on for years but not the gfx card. And it does cost alot more if u keeping changing to a new card with VIVO features.
