Esequiel Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 From what i have seen i would need a DVI (?) to VGA (?) connection? At least i think thats right. I bought a connector about 3 months ago, one that would go from the PC to the monitor but that does not work for the TV. The PC is a pentium 4 1.6Gh x 2 with i think a 8600 G-force card in it. Can anyone link me to what i need because theres too many things out there to choose from...
Guest Jordan Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 Your best bet is using maplin. You should have a VGA port on the back fo the 8600, if not you will need the following (if your HDTV does not have a DVI connector): 1 x DVI > VGA connector 1 x Long assed VGA cable (depending on how long you need it) For sound: 1 x long assed 3.5mm audio cable (with 2 male connectors NOT one with 1 male and 1 female) 1 x 3.5mm audio jack to RCA audio (i think thats the right terminalogy, its those white and red audio connectors)
Esequiel Posted May 28, 2008 Author Posted May 28, 2008 For the sound where do they plug into the PC? Also could i go from PC to HDMI?
Guest Jordan Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 In your normal speaker port. As for PC to HDMI, yes, but you wouldn't get sound on your graphics card.
DCK Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 PC to HDMI should work the same, get a DVI > HDMI cable instead. It's a bit more expensive than VGA, but it should offer slightly better quality.
