[QUOTE="Excalibur5, post: 617657, member: 104428"] Well, I have already ordered my combo, hopefully it will work together... If it helps, you can see pictures of my exact motherboard and case here (about 1/3 of the way down) [url=http://www.overclockers.com/dell-vostro-200/]Dell Vostro 200 | Overclockers[/url] You will see the PCI-Ex16 in the photo where I will be putting the video card, and the PCI-E slot right below it where I will be inserting the tv tuner card... Here is what I bought: Galaxy gt220 video card, the exact model shown here: [url=http://www.amazon.com/Galaxy-Technology-GeForce-Graphics-22TGE8HX2IUN/dp/B002OT6KPY/ref=pd_rhf_p_t_1]Amazon.com: Galaxy Technology 1 GB DDR2 625MHz GeForce GT220 Graphics Card 22TGE8HX2IUN: Electronics[/url] and a Hauppauge tuner card, the 2250, exact model shown here: [url=http://www.amazon.com/Hauppauge-1213-WinTV-HVR-2250-Control-Receiver/dp/B001E2V7R8/ref=pd_rhf_p_t_2]Amazon.com: Hauppauge 1213 WinTV-HVR-2250 Dual Hybrid PCI-E TV Tuner Board with Media Center Remote Control and[/url] It LOOKS like the cards will fit next to one another, and with the low profile tuner card, it should hopefully allow for airflow to the video card without much trouble, even though they are right next to one another... The reason I originally said the tuner had to be PCI is because of the close proximity of the slots on the MOBO, but after looking closely, I believe they will sit side by side. Any input? See any major issues? [/QUOTE]
