Thinking of incopurating my tv and pc into 1 article and making it the center piece of my bedroom and not sure of the best way to do it. the graphics cards i have currently are an x1950 (master) in crossfire with an x1900 xt and as its crossfire am wondering on size vs speed. I was really thinking i need a DVI connection to the two cards in crossfire to get rid of the current analog connection and dvi comvertor i have hopefully inhancing *** quality and resolution magially. Then some how rig Tv to whatever choice either through a tv card or standard ariel if i have a tv ? any ideas and thanks to any help given in advance. my budget for a new screen is £400 max :) thanks again
 
I currently have a vga connection on my monitor which occasionally causes interferance as i have to run with a vga to dvi connector to use my graphics cards and its not ideal with crossfire. As the digital signal going to an analog connection just causes slight interferance , quite annoying. Very true i here good things about dell and am hoping with the crossfire i should get good resolutions however have seen this samsung monitor which appears roughly the same unless i have missed something, so no one would recoomend a tv over something like a dell? As the system gets used a lot more for gaming rather than general tv, and should be quiet running as am going to water cool the lot :) all opinions welcome. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-054-SA&groupid=17&catid=510&subcat=
 
I wanted to make it all 1. Thinking of getting samsung or dell and wall mounting it :). Then a tv card and recording software to record shows tro my hardwrive cause with liquid cooling on the way pc noise wouldent be an issue. crossfire am using has the xfire cable giving off a single dvi, where i currently use *** convertor :(. I think a 24 @ 1920 x1200 is better than a 27 or 32 inch at much lower, after all it is for my bedroom lol :). Think it would be easier :) than tryign to connect a tv to a pc as ive never done that before. but open to pros and cons
 
I have tryed using s video before but does it require software to detect the connection? which colours are *** s video as i have several just a yellow connector? and then one that connects to the gfx card then splits into various cables? please help ? :)
