Two Vid cards in a system

stereosteve99 · 08-11-02, 11:44 PM

Is it possible to have two video cards in a system, for instance having one in the agp slot, and another in a pci slot, so that I could watch tv?? Would there be any problem doing this?

Yes, that is possible. Ideally that is what you would want anyways.

For instance if you ever upgrade, your TV tuner can go along w/ the next videocard upgrade. If you bought the AIW just for the TV tuner, when you upgraded you would have to buy either another AIW or a seperate TV tuner for that function.
