TV out and DVI in

[thereckerdbraikr]

what excatly do these features do?

Im wondering this because im not sure which video card to get........

TV out, puts you're screen on a tv...usually with an S-video connection. While DVI is used for lcd monitors i believe..

 

[thereckerdbraikr]

does anyone else have anything to say?

 

[ahajv4life]

you new peeps are extremely impatient.

 

[thereckerdbraikr]

sorry, but i just really wanna get my new computer tommorow lol

 

[ahajv4life]

going to the store to pick it up?

 

[thereckerdbraikr]

ya, and im wonderin if i should upgrade the card, or build a cpu with a better card online

i rather get it from the store though, and upgrade in the near future to a ati radieon 256mb

i think the hp im gonna get comes with an intel 128 express or somethin...and i dont think that it has tv out so i was wondering wha tit did

So tv out doesnt really matter unless u wanna use ur pc on a big screen or somethin, rite?

im still not clear on the DVI though

[thereckerdbraikr]

well i guess i might as well say what the pc will have now....u ppl might not care, but o well

Intel P4 530J 3.0GHz
1GB RAM (not sure waht type, its like dual channel or something...)
200 GB SATA HD
Double Layer DVD+/-R/RW burner
DVD Rom
19" HP LCD monitor
Single TV tuner

I probably forgot some stuff
Cant wait though

Overall sweet set-up, I would have maybe gone with a different brand of LCD, but that's just me

well it came in the package for 1250, so ithought it was a pretty good deal ,but a sony lcd might have been bettter. O well
