Connecting my PC to my HDTV

[trapar]

Hello there, I was just wondering if it was possible to connect my pc to my HDTV, and if so, then how does one do it? Does it depend on the graphics card? By the way, I was wondering that if it's possible, is it a good thing to connect both of them or will I encounter problems later on?

How do you plan on connecting them? If your TV has a VGA or DVI port then I would go to that first. If you plan on connecting via HDMI and have streaming audio through the cable, then you need to hook up an audio loop cable from your sound card to your video card. If you have speakers connected to your desktop, then you just need an HDMI adapter for your video card. Should run you about $10, and it should just be a plug and play deal.

Turns out I had everything I needed. I connected them both by using the VGA ports and then I just simply connected the audio from the pc by using a cable.
