2 of the 150's would be cheaper, wouldn't they do the same thing as the 1 500??
If not, what would the differences be??

Thanks,
Cluck

    2 x 150 does the same as a 500, butt 2 x 150......

    1. Takes up more space in your computer, look at future expandabillity.
    2. Requires 2 antenna connections
    3. Consumes more power

    A PVR500MCE is just a cleaner way of doing it.

    MP1 MP2 Case Downsizing DE
    Most (all?) small PC cases accept only ITX motherboards, which have only one PCI-E slot. So you could install only one PCI-E tuner card. A quad-tuner card would give you four tuners, but if you wanted more tuners you would need to use the TBS eight-tuner card, or use external tuners, either USB tuners (available with single or dual...
