Hi,

I'm purchasing a new video card this weekend and not sure which one to go with. I need it to be fairly inexpensive under $100 for sure preferably $50 or less. I have a AMD Quad Core, 16GB Ram Dell XPS 7100. My HDMI out on the onboard video is broken (soldier problem) so this is why I`m replacing it, I need to to display onto a 42inch LED TV via my Denon AVR-Reciever. I`m hoping the desktop will at the very least expand to the edge`s if not very close and need the movies to display on the TV full screen depending on movie format. Would also like to have dual display capability so my son can use computer while I`m watching a movie.

Thanks

ok thanks, I actually bought a ZBOX ID41 Plus to use as my HTPC. I love it, it works great. Having a problem though with audo, JRiver & windows see's my Denon AVR but when I volume up/down or mute system volume it has no effect only if i use denon remote for volume.

Switch MC to use "Internal" volume.  Click on the speaker icon in the upper left corner.
