    S-Video will be better then RCA.

    If your TV supports component video (YPbPr) I would go with that.

    QUality issues! I have used one of those previously and my graphics card didn't support it. It needs to have a special TV by VGA out. The customer support guy at ATI told me NONE of their cards support it, so I guess its very hard to find a compatible graphics card.

    Try taking a look to see if yours is compatible.

    I do have to say though, I don't know if it will be as bad, but when I am playing the Wii using S-Video I get diagonal lines.

    It only happens on 50Hz games though. So you'll be fine if it even happens to you unless you run your PC at 50Hz.
