I have a customer with an Aspire G7710 game computer. He has a video card in it attached to 2 monitors (no complaints). Now he wants to add another video card so that he can also attach a TV to his computer.

Any suggestions?
 
why? what is he going to be using the TV for? is it just for another monitor? but a larger screen? playing games or just watching movies and such? If playing games, get another AMD 4850 or 5850 like he has, HDMI to TV. or if just watching movies and videos and such, any cheap AMD card above a HD3800, or Nvidia GT220 and above. Without knowing more about how it will be used, best I can give you.
 
What outputs does his existing video card have? How many does it have?

Would a signal splitter be a better choice than a second video card?
