hey guys, I'm currently buying parts for my future car pc. I'm going to use this system for mp3 playback, gps, and dvd/divx. The system will be run off a mini-ITX board with a 1.3ghz pentium M and 768 of DDR. I'm pretty sure the onboard video would be streched a bit too far with dvds and video files, so I'm looking for a cheap video card. Pricewatch has a 9250 w/128 for 39 bucks, and that sounds great, but I really don't know how it would perform. I would appreciate some input or vicious flaming. Keep in mind, cheap as possible for good video playback.


Plus, on the specs, the board says it has a "mini-agp" slot. what in the fuck is that? here's a link to the board specs. Will a normal video card work? would I have to get some tiny card or something even more ridiculous?
 
Mini-AGP socket supports DVI / HDTV (Intel 855GM basis) and 4xAGP VGA add-in module (Intel 855GME basis)

Not quite sure whats up with that quote, I dont get what there talking about with the add-in module. Also, in the picture, that is a PCI slot, not AGP.
 
yep, doesn't really seem obvious. I'm not sure what's with that quote, I probably have to pay more for the answer. Anyways, video card recommendations will suffice if no one know what that quote means. thanks
