I purchased a Pinnacle PCTV card that is universally keyed. It seems to
work fine in the newer 3.3volt slots.
I've tested it in an IBM x335 server and Intellistation Z Pro, it worked in
both cases.
This card was interesting because it used the Fusion 878A chip just like
the Hauppauge 401 card. The folks at Hauppauge told me about a year ago
that the 878A would not work in a 3.3volt slot and that their 3.3volt card
would use the newer Connexant chip requiring new drivers. I don't know if
they were mistaken or if the card will appear to work for awhile and then
fail after prolonged use.

You need a card that is either 3.3V (unlikely to exist) or dual 3.3/5V.
Dual voltage pci cards have two notches in the pci connector - has
anyone seen a supported video card with two notches?
Example (Promise IDE controller)

For the reference:
3.3V has one notch near the bracket.
5V has one notch on the side away from the bracket.
