i can get the AIW x800xt for a cool £210, however i seen a x850xt pe for about £300 , is worth paying the extra money to get the x850xt pe or should i get the
AIW x800xt?

btw i am upgrading from a 9800 pro

thanks

There is very little difference,you can overclock/softmod an xt to an xt pe quite easily,i beleive.

All in Wonder cards do indeed have analogue TV tuners so you can plug an aerial in.

My X800 is not the AIW one, just the VIVO one and thats pretty useful. AIW cards are not as common in this generation as they where in past ones however they are great things to have.

As Roady said they have a TV Tuner in them and can pick up all the analogue channels, so thats BBC1, 2, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5(Depending on Geographical Location). You will be able to record orf them and with extra software, pause live TV, and connect up any thing else to the AV port on the back. Like a games console...freeview box...etc.

yup ill shall keep my eyes open on when the next aiw card comes out.

are the better then standard ones at video editing too?

Well video editing doesnt really utilise the GPU, that primarily uses the CPU and RAM. So it wont make a difference.

But they do have video inputs and firewire and so on.
