Can I use HDMI output on this

[isonomicjedi]

Hi All,

Looks like my pc is on its way back to me and I want to ask, what is no doubt a seemingly stupid question.

Until I can afford a seperate monitor (that I plan to have on swinging arm that fill push pack to wall) can I connect to my Samsung LE32D580 LCD HD 1080p using an HDMI connector rather than the vga specified pc/vga input to the screen.

Or should I be connecting some other way.

The Samsung tech-specs for imput/output are:

Input&Output
Component In (Y / Pb / Pr)
Component In (Y / Pb / Pr) 1 (Common use for Component Y)
Digital Audio Out (Optical)
DVI Audio In (Mini Jack): 1 (Common use for PC Audio In)
Ethernet (LAN)
Headphones
HDMI x 4
PC Audio In (Mini Jack)
PC In (D-sub)
USB x 2
Scart
CI Slot

I am using a Gigabyte 7970 Windforce 3X graphics card.

thanks in advance for any help.

Okay thanks it was as stupid question as I thought it was.

It's just that its hard for me to reach behind the screen (hardly any room to wall) and I don't want to waste what little energy I have having to try it, fail, then having to try another connection.

many thanx

Thanx Swordfish,

My manual is an horrible elctronic one that's really hard to find what you want but I'll give it a go.

My HDMI 1 input says HDMI/DVI but I'll see what happens tomorrow.
