Will an Asus Geforce 2 Deluxe work well for the tv out? I see that most people are using Geforce 4 MX 440 boards. Is there any particular reason for this? Thanks. |

I'm using an Nvidiia GeForce 2 MX400 for tv out. It's decent for my use. It's definitely not the best, but works fine for watching videos, etc. The only gripe I have is that text can be hard to read at smaller font sizes (on xterms, console, etc), but it is readable. For the price, it works fine. |

Yes, it will work. If I remember correctly, TVOutOverscan will only work w/ Geforce 4 on up... |

So if I don't have TVOutOverscan, then will I have a black outlline around the picture? |

nvtv and TVOutOverscan are two different things. |

yes untill the gf4mx and newer you had to use nvtv a seperate utility not written by nvidia, and yes it has overscan settings and alot more. as of the gf4mx you can use the tvoverscan option in the XF86Config-4 file (see the nvidia readme for more info) and I know at one point nvtv would not work with the gf4mx and newer, but they may have fixed that now. |
