The performance of the first NVIDIA DX10.1 cards is absimal, the feature set however is quite completely, with HDMI and HD Content decoding, ideal for a HTPC? maybe.. if the price is right? At €56 for the cheapest model listed at Geizhals the Palit/XpertVision GeForce GT 220 Super Sonic, 512MB GDDR3, VGA, DVI, HDMI, PCIe 2.0 (NE3T220SFHD51); but Gigabyte already has an overclocked version out for €60: Gigabyte GeForce GT 220 OC, 1024MB GDDR3, VGA, DVI, HDMI, PCIe 2.0 (GV-N220OC-1GI), +105Mhz on the GPU. The even slower GT210 is listed for ~€40 at Geizhals...
