I have to admit, I found this a bit odd considering Dell hasn’t had a CableCARD PC available on their site since January, but they are now offering the ATI Internal Digital Cable Tuner for $209.99. Now I know you can find these tuners on Ebay for cheaper sometimes but most of the time they’re of the external variety. So if you’re looking for a place to buy an internal tuner for a decent price, Dell looks like the best option. The only other place that I know of that sells them separately is Cannon PC and they’re going for $279.99.
Special thanks to Jason for tipping me off on this. Just in case your wondering, he actually placed an order and has received the tuners so this is a legit deal.

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the 2. Both seem to be internal digital tuners. Thanks
Eric,
That is not a CableCARD tuner. It’s just an analog/ATSC combo card so you can get over-the-air channels but not digital cable channels.
Just wanted to let people know that ATI has discontinued both the internal and external versions of the ATI Digital Cable Tuner. The Ceton InfiniTV 4 tuner is going to be avialable May 31st, 2010. It is a quad Digital Cable Tuner. It requires a PCI Express slot and sells for $399. Comes as a low profile version.
