I had expected it to be one card, I'm no engineer but I can't imagine it would have been that hard to put that circuitry onto the 5570.
Then again maybe it is better to use up that 1x PCI-E slot with the capture card and then be able to (at your own leisure) upgrade to a more powerful gaming card.
Great review but overall I think the All-In-Wonder moniker doesn't really apply here, they should have just called it something else.

I'm probably mistaken but I went on the Diamond website, chatted with a rep and she said they don't make this card anymoe, which is why, I guess, can't find it for sale anywhere. This seems to be a recent post, so what is going on? I can really use a card like this in my HTPC, since the Hauppauge 2250 card is dodo-no HDCP.Weird

While neither of the links on the review page worked, I did find this link on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co...cm_cr_pr_sims_t
It is new, so there are no reviews there as of 3/12.
