My MythTV System:

Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350 card
pcHDTV card
NVidia GeForce 6200 PCI-X - used only for MPEG
decoding for the pcHDTV card, soon to be primary
output to HDTV.

Hauppauge 350 card only does SD TV, pcHDTV does SD and HD TV.
Each card can only record one show at a time, so the more cards the more shows recorded simultaneously.
