My new graphics card is a BFG 7600GT. I haven't bought it yet, but it's the one I was thinking of getting.
The reason why I want it is for the 2x DVI sockets on it for my new screens I will be getting later on. Also seems nice and powerfull so it will compliment the rest of the system I have specced up (64bit AMD, 2gb RAM e.t.c...).
I noticed that it had what I shoulght was S-Video output, which on closer inspection is actually labled as an HDTV output. Currently I run a dual screen system, which is extreemly usefull. However, one of the now computers job is going to be to replace the TV. My TV has an S-Video input on it, along with the usual SCART and composite connections.... I was wondering if I could connect the HDTV output of the graphics card to the TV in anyway? Would be good if the TV could still do TV jobs without needing the set top box anymore.

Just done some more research... You are right, there is even a wire that comes in the box to allow you to connect a composite wire to the HDTV plug... 3 screens it is then
