Hello.
I'm looking for a new video card. The main demands I will have for this card is HDTV/Bluray playback (vdpau support?), and also I want to do some experimenting with CUDA/OpenCL programming. I also want the card to be quiet, preferably fanless, and since my favorite games are a few years old by now I can probably go with a less expensive card from the current generation.
I've been looking in the $70-$150 price range, maybe something like the nvidia 220 or 9800GT ? I don't know if I should consider ATI cards, all my current cards are nvidia so I'm more familiar with configuring them. Do ATI cards support vdpau and cuda programs, or something equivalent?
