I ordered a Nidiva GTX 260 and I was wondering if I can use an HDMI TV as a secondary monitor.
Also, this a good TV?

By the way, why do cards come with an S-video output

I've wondered this myself on several occasions so I looked it up...Gary wrote:By the way, why do cards come with an S-video output![]()
So its a sorta debug thing...Wikipedia wrote:Due to a lack of bandwidth, S-Video connections are generally not considered suitable for high-definition video signals. As a result, HD sources are generally connected to a monitor by way of analog component video or wideband digital methods (usually HDMI or DVI). However, when using older monitors with S-Video but without HDMI and DVI, some graphics cards have full display (including bootup display) with HDMI, DVI, and S-Video and partially full display (displaying only after the OS boots up) with component and composite. So in this case, S-Video works well, as it allows the user to see the display in the event that they need to adjust settings in the CMOS.
yea.. a buddy gave me an idea, if I can find like a 2-port usb hub I'll put that inside it so I can haz usb stick&working mouse XD but other than that it still looks neat, not that I'll use my usb stick for much now.. I got an external hdd enclosure for my laptop drives, so I now have a 20gb laptop drive that plugs into 2 usb ports.. not sure if it needs both ports.. but it has another usb plug for more power to the drive..xzodia wrote:Novel, but isn't it a bit bulky for a usb stick?
I need updated pics, in this one I'm still running the Windows Xp Professional x64 with Royale Noir theme OSsocrates wrote:(I have this strange feeling Dragonfire has the best setup of us all...)
