I am purchasing a 32" flat panel LCD TV and patch my pc into it. What type of video card is needed ?

Is there any LCD TV better than another for running with a pc and is it possible to run an HDMI from PC to LCD?|||Yes

HDMI is basically just DVI with audio. There are adapters, but the TV will likely have DVI in anyway so you could just use that.|||I know Geforce 8000 series have hi-def capabilities not sure about conection maybe dvi and sound in out of the question|||I have done something similar. As far as I know there is not HDMI graphics cards and if there is they are mostly likely expensive.



What I have done is get a graphics card that has both DVI and VGA outputs so I can use it for multiple reasons and also dual screen. I purchased a DVI to HDMI cable to connect from computer to TV. The price for the cable varies. Cheap ones will work fine. Length of cable is something you should consider. I found a good 12 foot cable (I'm plugging it into a big screen). There are a lot of 4-6 foot ones out there too. Good Luck
