[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 684086, member: 76888"] another +1 for not getting 4350, it is too slow for 1080i HDTV. If going for 4XXX I recommend 4670, however the 5XXX cards probably offer better value as they don't make the 4XXX cards anymore (unless you are going second hand), of coruse if you find the 4670 for a very low price then buy it as it's a good card. The advantage of the 5XXX cards is they can do HD audio (eg. DTS-HD), however you have to have a very expensive audio system to be able to output HD audio. Also try to avoid passive video cards, get one with a very quiet fan, it is a lot better than passive cards which frequently have problems in most setups because of inadequate airflow over the heatsinks, and a lot of people (*not all*) just end up adding more fans to the case which ends up louder than a fan on the actual video card.
