Video card for use with 350

I've been reading quite a bit about issues with the 350 + TV out. Since I really hope to use this card because of the output quality is there a recommended video card that plays well with the 350. I am using a 5 year old Diamond Stealth card I had sitting around and needless to say things are a bit flakey. Don't even know if it has overlay. For those of you who are using the 350 TV out without a hitch (using OSD) - which video card are you using? I'd like to buy a new card that at least has a chance of being compatible.

If you're using the 350 output, video card should have no effect, they are completely separate outputs.

That's good to know. I guess I was thinking there was some sort of link between the 2 cards. My PC display is horribly slow, choppy and generally unusable but I guess that is due to my settings and current video card. This is my first HTPC and I've only been looking around for a couple of weeks before deciding on STV. The quality of output on the 350 is amazing but I knew there might be some issues.

I'll just have to do like everyone else and work through these one at a time. I just wanted to make sure I'm not starting out handicapped on the OSD because of the graphics card. Thanks.
