PCI slot Compatability

[rationalthinking]

I have an old desktop that i'm installing a new video card so I can hook it up to my tv. The computer only has 3 regular 120PIN PCI slots available for expansion.

What other exterfance types will work?

PCI Express? or PCI Express 2.0?

Nope, only a PCI card.

well, if you only have PCI slots, than you can only get PCI video cards. Apparently the radeon 8500 is better than the 9250, I think that they are both for PCI. PCI cards are cheap and some have TV connections like RCA and S-video. So just check out PCI cards that have TV connections, and you'll be good to go. They are all cheap for PCI, so thats a plus. Don't try to play a brand new game with it though.
