[QUOTE="jcee, post: 71104, member: 10506"] What do you mean by "scaling-to-mathc-screen"? Both cards (ATI/Nvidia) can be configured to do overscan compensation. That means you end up with a costum resolution of let say 1216x711, which just fits onto the display of your TV, so nothing is lost and there are no borders. When you switch to a game or something that forces a certain resolution (like 640x480), the display adapter takes care of this and the picture appears fullscreen. (Where my FX5200 would just output 640x480) and my Plasma had difficulties displaying, ending up in some parts of the screen lost and some borders as well). That works pretty nice on both cards as far as I have found out [/QUOTE]
