Hey dood, those two are nice. It also depends on if you want to duplicate what you see on the screen, or if you just want to use the TV instead of a monitor. If you want to duplicate then I think the Sewell (2nd link) converter is probably better as it does look like it duplicates what you see, but I would double check with them before you buy.

These converters do work well, but as your probably aware, it looks very much different to what you would normally see on a monitor, due to the maximum resolution a TV can display, unless of course you have HD. It's a little more burry, but very good for making movies, presentations e.t.c.

thanks. i know that the TV will not look as good as the monitor,especially if i wanna look at text ans stuff like that, but i dont have HDTV, i dont need it to be that clear, i just need it to be as clear as if i was watching the same movie on a DVD player. i like to save my dvds on a Hard Drive for convinience. will these pc-tv things let me watch the DVD movies on my computer as good as it would look if i just played them in a dvd player hooked up to my TV ?thats the question . thanks in advance for the help .

thanks madmonkey . 1 last question . my uncle has an HDTV big screen and a pc hooked up to it, he basically told me the same thing, that those 2 things would work for what i wanted, but he also told me that for a lil more money i can just go all the way and get a new Video card altogether to kill more than 1 bird with a stone, like lowering the CPU usage. I want to know if this is a good card and if it is compatible with what i have .
here is the link to the card: eBay: ATI RADEON 9250 256MB PCI VIDEO CARD LIKE NEW (item 170073614782 end time Jan-27-07 13:21:37 PST)

and the link to my PC specs : Compaq Presario S5100NX Desktop PC -  Product Specifications 

The specs are still the same except i have 760 Mb of ram , and 330 Gb of HD now.
thanks ! ( youre just one more answer away from that "thanks" click ! )

Yep, I totally agree with your uncle. I personally prefer NVidia to ATI, but that's still a good card and will work in your PC no problems there pk.

Thanks alot ! I just won the card in an auction for 35 . Im exited . i also clicked the "thanks" thing you earned !
