DVI to s-video adapter

[Redmelo]

Greetings!

So I built my new system and it runs like a dream. However, I failed to notice that the gfx card does not have a s-video (TV) out and only 2x DVI plugs instead.
Is there any way I can hook up my TV to this?
The only solution I found was a Apple DVI to Video Adapter but I'm not sure if this is Apple only and if this will even work in my case with the whole digital to analogue problem.

On a side note, my current system is i7 920// 260 GTX// OCZ Gold 6GB DDR3 PC3-10666C9 //Samsung SpinPoint F1 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache// Win XP 32 (therefore using only 3.25GB RAM). My 3DMark06 results were 16500, is that decent with everything at stock speeds?

Cheers,
Red

what tv do you have?

It's a relatively old Sony Trinitron. It only has a SCART and s-video input, unfortunately.

how about dvi to vga via the standard dongle you get, and then vga to scart / s-video?
I can see that working...

Google 'vga to s video'


Use the dvi to vga adaptor that came with the graphics card. I would suggest vga to scart but they are hit and miss if they work or not.

Cheers, I'll give it a try.
