Apr 7, 2014 - The highest resolution your TV supports is 720p (1360x768). Or full HD, so with the latest drivers, your graphics card and driver shouldn't be the issue. I have smart philips tv 32 inch as monitor, you must find modus to.

Ustrojstvo dlya ostanovki elektronnogo elektroschetchika. I suspect this is becoming more common as the prices of HD flat-panel tv's come down. Has anyone hooked up a flat-panel TV to use as their computer monitor? I am contemplating purchasing a 32 inch flat panel to hook up to my computer. Here are the specs of the TV: Does anyone have any advice if this is worth doing? Will a TV have the same capabilities as a monitor designed specifically for computers? In particular, I will be using it for a lot of gaming.

What are some of the differences between a 32 inch HD TV such as the one I've indicated here (Toshiba 32HL86) or a 32 inch lcd monitor? Any big difference in image quality? I have a Olevia Silver 32' 16:9 8ms HD LCD TV Model 332H.

It is great if you use the DVI input, choose a native resolution for your display. Mine runs best quality at 1280 X 720. If you have a decent Video card you will have lots of choices. Just keep trying resolutions until you get the best picture possible. Then tweak the colors and hue, and wow, it is really sharp and fast. Playing DVD's on my computer through it are outstanding, no ghosting.

Text is crisp, (correct Settings for your Video Card)and everything is distinct. I have heard some complain about using large screens like this, but it is usually people who didn't take the time to find the correct display resolution to get the sharpest screen. I got mine here. My video card is an ATI Radeon, 256 MB, nothing special card. With DVI it is great. Tried the standard PC connection, not so good. I would say DVI is a must for best display.

Thanks for your reply Tim. OK so I have this TV's manual (the TV mentioned above) and it says: 'NOTE: DO NOT CONNECT A PC USING THE HDMI PORT. Always use the TV's PCI IN (VGA) port to connect a pc. - The HDMI port is not designed to support input from a PC. - Only TV models that include a PC IN (VGA) port are suitable for a connection to a PC.'

OK, that's a bit of a bummer. Wouldn't a VGA connection be analog, and thus not use the 1080i capability of this TV?

Why can't I connect my PC in this way? I have a Radeon X1950 xtx card with DVI output and HDTV support. I was going to get a DVI to HDMI cable for hooking it up to the TV. I hope this manual is not taking into consideration video cards such as this. Do I risk seriously messing up the TV if I use the HDMI port given my video card specs? Would hooking it up via VGA port be compromising the quality of the picture relative to the HDMI?
