| Video Card Consideration?
So I'm new to the whole home theater experience (as you will note from the lack of essential goodies). However, I am something of a computer expert, but from what I have read, I need to learn a few tricks in order to use my panny TH-42PX60U with a computer. So a couple of questions.
1. If I build a PC with a GEFORCE 8800GTS will I be able to use a DVI to HDMI adapter to use my tv as my monitor?
2. Is there a better video card out there that I should be considering?
3. What will I need to do to get it working? I've read that for ATI, they have a "catalyst control center" that allows you to tweak their cards to output the best signal?
4. I was thinking of going with Vista 32bit. Any reason I shouldnt?
5. Aside from buying a better TV, I am open to any computer set up that will let me use my computer on my tv for movies, computing, etc.
I really appreciate your setting this HT newbie straight!
