Tuner Card Question

[ZebraRampage]

Hey everyone. I have a question about tuner cards. Next year I don't feel like bringing a tv to college, so I have been thinking about buying a tuner card for my computer. I don't know much about them, but I do know that you can hook up your videogame consoles to some of them via RCA audio and video cables and you can also get television on your computer through them using the coax cables. I know basically what I need, but there are some specifics that I would like to set straight before I buy anything. I know that I have a pci interface, so that would limit things a bit, and I have also read that getting a tuner card with PVR is not good for gaming due to delay. Could any of you let me know what would be the best type of tuner card to get for my conditions?
