Advantages: MPEG2/Pause Live TV/Excellent Games Play

Disadvantages: Black Border on TV Out

I bought this card as a replacement to the Matrox Marvel G200. Some of my friends refer to Matrox as craptrox after my experience with my G200.

The ATI on the other hand has out of the box support for Win 98/ME & 2000 Pro. With windows XP on the way.

It easy to set-up and the TV output is the best I've ever seen, the recording quality from TV is outstanding and works fine with my PIII800.

One of the problems that it shares with my Matrox is that the screen area for TV output doesn't fill the screen properly.
This leaves a black border around the screen.
Although it does have adjustment I still can't get it perfectly to fit my screen, but it is better than the Matrox for this.

Gameplay on hitman for instance is amazing, my old 8MB Matrox is jerky and false, but the ATI is as smooth as a baby's bottom.
Colours are rich and full of vibrancy.

All in all it's cool and much better than ATI's previous efforts.
