I just graduated college so i updated my computer with the latest dell deal of slick deals. I got a demension 9100 w/a 20in wide screen LCD moniter. I am hoping to make this my new bed room TV b/c of the 20in moniter. It has 128MB PCI Express™ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon X300 SE HyperMemory for a graphics card. I know this dosnt have a TV tuner with it, so we come to my question. I know i need a tv tunner and i want one with a remote and perferably with DVR capability. What is the best way to aproach this problem, should i get a whole new graphics card with it intergrated or a seperate TV tuner card? I really dont game a whole bunch and dont really plan on getting really into it. So lay it on me... where do i go from here?
