For a good image quality: do not use SiS. The chip doesn't support any
form of vsync control, neither hardware or software; even a
vga-rgb/scart cable doesn't give optimal results. Therefore, tv-out
using the bob deinterlacer (the only filter producing fluid motion) goes
jittering every now and then, which I found to be quite annoying. I have
the Pundit non-R and placed an AGP nVidia GeForce MX4000 card in it; now
it's picture perfect. Search a bit for 'sis' and 'bobdeint' in the
mailing archives and read my posts about it.
For the rest of the components, the Pundit is an excellent choice. I
have one standing next to a Philips 16:9 tv; both of them silver and
blue leds, nice :)

Are the sis drivers good?
That's why it's the better choice. ATI hardware is great, but the
linux driver support is lousy. Thomas Winischhofer has made a great
driver for the SiS stuff, and I've been told that the tv output of the
pundit may even be better than nvidia's:

But that's just my opinion.

Which chipset do you recommend? I can buy Sis651, ATI RS300, and Intel
951. Intel is much more expensive. Is it possible to have a full
overscanned 720x576 or 768x576 X resolution on the tv outs? What about
the audio chip?
SiS is by FAR the best choice.
