...and the M-Audio or RME cards should give you much better digital or analog out than a Soundblaster. Perhaps your 8500 would look better with the latest drivers, it seems that many of the AVS forum members are satisfied with Radeons outputting to CRT FPs, so there must be a way to make it look great with sufficient tweaking. I'm running a Radeon 32 SDR to a Sony RPTV, so the interlaced resolutions look best to me, given my scan frequency limitations. 1800x960i looks wonderful, and I've tweaked the refresh and scan rates so the picture looks quite solid. I do notice flicker sometimes on scrolling text during movies, however.
Follow Ups:
I'm aware of the M-Audio and might try that at some point, but I don't want to spend more money improving the audio until I can eliminate the video issues. Right now, the HTPC is either an expensive HDTV tuner with excellent recording capabilities built in, or an expensive DVD player with unacceptable performance with my front projector. Its DVD performance with my rear projectors is fine, but so far, doesn't justify the expenditure.
