Make sure you also buy a dedicated monitor, coz the resolution of a conventional TV is far less than of a monitor, so though movies and probably even games would look ok, you gonna definately ruin the surfing experience or any text base work for that matter.

To connect to a TV the very first thing natually you need is a videocard that supports TV-out. Commonly, you will be able to identify this by looking at the back of your VideoCard.

Commonly there are two types of connections available...

1. S-Video
2. Composite Video

Usually special cables with these cards, that convert the connector to a more common connector, like the 3-in-1 connection comminly used in TVs.
The below pic shows different types of connections available ona card...
A,B are the S-Video and C is the composit video. Composite video is more common than s-video, though s-video offers better quality. You have to go for a for a cable which can connect composite to the more common 3-in-1 connectors found in conventional TVs.
If you have an LCD TV, then there is a striaght way of a connection using a DVI connector. DVI cable is usually supplied with the TV or the graphic card.



Card showing diffferent connections....



Conventional TV connections (this one even has the s-video option)

Fiddle around with TV settings....AV1 or AV2, or try S-Video to 3-in-1 cable and connect to TV using that.....

I have an LG 29" Flat television, ant it's quite good.
Also one of my friends has an LG 29" normal TV which is about 3 years old, it is still working as good, and no problems at all.

I don't have any Inputs on other televisions, and may be there are better options than LG, but I can sure tell that LG is a good option and also that feature-wise, it is the most featured I guess, maybe other brands beat it at picture quality, I cant really tell I have not seen, but LG's quality is beyond satisfaction.

hi man
im having lg 29" fd55ve i purchased it 20 months before at 20k
its damn great to watch and it kicks samsungs29" a$$ in any aspect

fd55ve is having 1 component input port
3 av ports ie composite
1 svideo
1 av out ie composite out& audio out
1 headphone out
it supports 480i at 60hz
576i at 50/60hz with component inputs

it sports auto volume levelling
speakers are decent at 300w for even a hall
they dont have much bass but i dont mind it because iam using sbs 370 speakers through headphone out
and so volume is great with punch!!


im having athlon 3000+ atop a gigabyte geforce 6150/nForce430 with hdtv out so i connect my pc to this tv
through component inputs to watch movies
even if your graphics card dosent sports component output u can connect with svideo but mind it quality of cable must be great otherwise colour would be horrible
many people dont give a damn to quality of cable

regarding this::by medigit

But these Korean stuffs always lure the customers by providing more features at less cost. BUT, most of them are quite unreliable and will not last for long !!!

Both LG & Samsung sucks in TV. Instead Sony & Philips are great. Philips is one of the oldest in TVs. Even today most of the high end TV tuners for PC & TFTs uses philip chips.

quiet old thread, you have quiet a few good TV sets avaiable from Samsung.
As per me Samsung and Philips are better than Sony.

Finding Philips in the market is tough, not many shops keep them
few good samsung models
Samsung-CS21A753
Samsung-CS29A330
Samsung-CS29M50ME - a newer model of this would be available.

Philips-29PT550
Philips-29PT680

Philips and Samsung Ultra Slim models are very good
