What exactly are you asking for? Do you want a place were u can find cheap parts, or are you just telling us about what you plan to do?

with that much $, u can get a real nice pc. 240 gigs and a radeon 9800 or fx 5900 for sure. but if the 1200 is for pc and monitor, especially a flatpanel, then u have to cut back on some parts

I have a ATI Radeon 9500 Pro.. I say it's an ultimate gameing card... Ultimate TV output (supports output to Moniter, TV, YPbPr,and FPD)... With a 8 pixel pipeline+128mb video memory.. this also makes animation rendering in programs like maya even faster. It's benchmark score is 3-4 times higher than the one for Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 128mb. One of the most populare graphics cards on newegg.com. (good price.. good speed.. good deal)

For video output: ATI Wonder Remote Edition or VE (lil cheaper.. but i use it, the qual is alright.)

Hopefully your TV already has S-video.. am i right? Not to worry.. the 9500 pro card comes with extra little converters: S-Video-2-Video (yellow) DVI-2-Moniter (i guess for 2 comp moniter output).


Make sure you get a fresh strong RCA cord.. (dont worry about gettin the s-video cord.... 9500 pro card also includes one)
