If you live at home and have a job, you should worry about paying your
parents rent before you worry about buying a top of the line computer.
Learn responsibility, it makes you much happier in the long run.

I'm in the early stages of upgrading my PC, again. Since I now have a

job,
live at home, and therefore have no bills to pay (yet), I can finally

afford
to purchase hardware that is top-of-the-line now, not 6 months - 1 year

ago.
One of the things I'll definately be buying is the 9800 Pro. While

shopping
around, I noticed the 9800 Pro All-in-Wonder is generally less than $10

more
than the 9800 Pro. I do a small amount of video editing, and my old

WinTV
card is starting to show its age. Would it be worth it to get the
All-in-Wonder? Will it perform exactly as well as a 9800 Pro, with the

added
VIVO features? The card I am looking to purchase (9800 Pro All-in-Wonder
128MB) is manufactured by Sapphire.

Also, I have a question about dual-displays. Currently I am using 2
monitors, the primary display driven by a GeForce4 Ti4200, the secondary
display by a GeForce2MX. Will I run into issues with conficting drivers

by
having the 9800 Pro and GeForce2 running simultaneously? Or would it be
easier to just purchase an older ATI card to replace the older GeForce

card?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can offer.
