Nope, I dont think there would be one with the 1900xt, but there might be a DVI-VGA oconverter which might enable you to you to use the VGA port on the TV.


If you don't have the capability to use cables you already own then I'd recommend going for the DVI-HDMI cable but I don't know if OCUK sell these or not?

i am currently using the dvi to vga convertor since the signal is really digital and has been converted to analogue to be sent to the tv would buying the hdmi cable be worth it

Most of makro's stuff ( unless they have changed their suppliers ) are much like woolies in that they are chinese or other eastern 2nd or third tier companies, maybe ok for a 2nd or third tv but not where I would go for the primary source myself

You mean like all the Logitech and Altec Lansing? I am not defending Makro here, I quit for a reason, but some of the stuff being said about Makro in this thread is just retarded to say the least. Makro sell the same products of everyone else at the same quality, often much cheaper, and definitely a lot cheaper if you get staff discount.

they dont store it properly though, like in damp warehouses and stuff which has an effect on their goods, they always look cheap and tacky in their places whereas other places like comet hav a nice layout and proper stands and storage facilities

Well, I dunno about other Makros, but the one in Preston I worked for stored stuff really nicely.

so do you reckon it would be worth me doing this then, where would you get such a cable do ocuk stock them or did i get one with my x1900xt and lose it in the pile of rubble in my room if so i will try an tidy up and find it

I'm not sure that's a good idea, afaik the hdmi input on lcd tv's like the samsung will only accept 720p and 1080i, not standard pc reses., at least not properly. So you won't be able 1:1 pixel mapping and 1360x768 via hdmi. Best to stick with vga, also so you can use the hdmi for other purposes, whereas you'll probly never use the vga for anything other than pc.
