Hi Guys,

I've used Aria a fair while for buying stuff but never have used the forums before so Hello! I am looking to invest in a new pc very soon and have been using the build your own gaming pc function on the website. What I am looking for though, is a pc which allows me to throw away my TV in my room as its taking up loads of space. So that means i will need to somehow watch tv through my pc. Do any of the 'lower' end graphics cards have built in tv tuners or will i need to buy one and install it myself. If so which tv tuner would you guys recommend?

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Cheers

The ATI \"All in wonder\" has a TV tuner built in.

The graphics cards with a TV tuners built in don't seem to be much cop really.

You would be better off getting a graphics card that matches your requirements and then buying a separate TV tuner card.
There are many to choose from in this list...

No problem.

Just make sure you buy the right graphics card to match your motherboards expansion slot.

Same goes for the TV card
