I put xfx 8800gt in there because i have one and hav noticed it comes with a cable that plugs one end into the card and the other end has has 3 slots that would fit the playstation 2 video/sound output cable.

Thanks

If you have the adapter, you can try it.
I have the same card, but haven't tried it.

I have connected my Xbox 360 to my MacBook via a TV Tuner, which is something you may want to look into, for your pc.

you need a tv tuner, the cable on the back isnt a composite connection but an HD out connection to connect to HDTV's

If you do plan on purchasing a TV Tuner Card, beware...actual gameplay may lag by the time it gets to you screen.

There are various vga boxes that will achieve what you want without the possible lag associated with tv tuner cards:
