After reading the article re. DVI compliance... So it looks like ATI cards are working better than NVidia for DVI. I am looking to by a TV that takes DVI and I am concerned about the compliance of Nvidia cards. Are the ATI cards supported at all? I have always used Nvidia with no problems.
Thoughts? Experiences?
