The Bottom Line Whether you're looking to turn your PC into a DVR or simply want to watch TV on your desktop, the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-150 does the job at a reasonable price. Aptly named, the ATI TV Wonder Elite is easily the best PC TV tuner card we've seen. Hauppauge's WinTV-PVR-500 MCE is a good choice if you want to record two programs simultaneously, but it assumes you have a Media Center remote and the correct decoding software. The WinTV-HD offers an inexpensive and easy way to view and record HDTV via your PC. Diamond's XtremeTV PVR550 provides everything you'll need to turn your desktop into a media center PC, but its TV image quality isn't perfect.
