im thinking of going to a AIW 9700 or 9800 and wanted to know the difference between the AIW and the 9800 pro..will it still be able to play games and such?

im moving to a shuttle as my dvd/tv for my dorm and wanted a tv tuner card

thanks

Yea, it will be able to play games just fine. The only "downfall" is it wont overclock as well due to the added heat of the tuner, but it does run at the same speeds as the 9800 Pro so it will be able to handle games for quite a long time.
