Even if you don't plan to use it now, if you're getting an NVidia card, look for one with component out (also called HDTV-out). I picked up GeForce 6200 from Newegg, very nice card. DVI, VGA, S-video, component out, supposedly can even do dual-screen (monitor and TV), I'm going to try it out next. If you need dual DVI-out, your options are somewhat limited, you need a GeForce 6600-series card (or 6800, but that's an overkill).
