I'm upgrading my integrated graphics to a 2008-era card. I'm trying to decide between an NVIDIA card and an ATI. I'm leaning towards ATI, but one of my use cases is using the TV-out on the card. I have read that NVIDIA's drivers are superior when it comes to custom resolutions. Is this true?
Also, any card recommendations? Looking for low power consumption. Performance isn't that important because I have a Core i3-530 so anything should be better (my i3-530 sometimes struggles to play 1080p streaming video)

Do you live in Africa or something

ATI is long gone. Now it's AMD. It's like how Compaq is now long gone, it's now just HP.

No, I specifically need a video card with S-video out, and that year is about when both companies stopped offering that as an option. And anything from that era is better than the integrated graphics on my i3-530 which I've been fairly satisfied with for 7 years now as I don't play games.

Yeah, I know, but it was still ATI in the 2008-2009 era.

Just buy a converter cable, you dumbo.

Nigga just get a converter and low end gpu from 2017.

It doesn't matter, none will be officially supported at this point, and the old drivers have ironed out the bugs a long time ago.

If you have a nice CRT TV and want to use it for retro purposes just get an old Thinkpad or something

Bought one (DVI to S-video and composite). It requires TV-out support, which apparently my motherboard doesn't support, as nothing shows up on my TV.
>>61233895
What kind of converter?
