[QUOTE="hagur, post: 20582, member: 10373"] Hi, I need to get myself a new graphics card for my HTPC. Requirements: - Atleast 1 DVI output. - DirectX 9 support - Very cheap - Able to display 1280x768 widescreen resolution. - Passive cooling would be a definite plus - Work well with MP (Don't they all? :) ) - Should handle a little gaming .... nothing major though, I'm talking old games. I have a projector with a native 1024x768 resolution and an LCD TV with a native 1280x768 resolution. I need the card to be able to output a "clone" image to the projector and the TV simultaneously so I won't have to mess with cables or change resolution when I want to use the computer with the projector and vice versa. So it should obviously provide the projector with a 1024x768 resolution and the TV with a 1280x768 resolution. I want to use a DVI connector to connect the TV and D-SUB VGA to the projector. I had something like an ATI Radeon 9550 in mind .... is that far off? Any suggestions please? [/QUOTE]
