What do I need to connect my computer to a TV with HDMI input?

Hello everyone!

My question is as follows:-
What do I need to connect my computer to a TV with HDMI input?

My graphic card is GT240 and it got HDMI port, which I believe is output
will it work with HDMI TV by just connecting them using HDMI to HDMI cable?
or do I need anything else?

no, the cable is all, do you know if it a HDMI 1 or 2 1=no sound, 2 has sound, if it's a 1 you will need cables for stereo sound as well

HDCP stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection, a copy protection scheme to eliminate the possibility of intercepting digital data midstream between the source to the display, it is highly recommended that any HDTV you purchase is compatible.
read HDCP=DRM=Destroying Retail Markets
they don't want you to put something that would intercept the signal so you could copy the program

well, you can hook any tv to a computer, you just need a converter box,HDMI looks great, converter boxes look good

Yes, if the TV doesn't have HDCP, the HDMI won't work? I know a converter box would do it but I prefer the HDMI!
so the question is if the TV doesn't have HDCP, will it still work with my computer through HDMI?


@OvrClkr I buy that card? or its included with the motherboard or what?

if the tv does not HDCP, HDMI will work, but the RIAA has made such a fuss pirates are "stealing" their stuff(pirates do not steal, they copy)that they are coercing gov't worls wide that it is bad, the irony here is that the reason pirating is so bad is because of such poor quality media, and pirates are downloading very high quality(consequestially larger files) material, all this could be solved by selliing high quality stuff, it is no harder or costly, they are just lazy,(FWIW- I am in CHina, I just went to Walmart and bought a real movie from Fox has the security label and all, you may have heard of it James Cameron's "AVATAR" I paid $3.50 USD for it, so tell me who's getting ripped off) but anyway back on target, if the TV doesn't have HDCP in some instances or maybe later on you might not be able to recieve a certain program from a provider, maybe Google a search on HDCP and see what you find, like I said here in China, DRM is farce, so all the info I get from my search engine, enjoy

if the tv has HDMI, it will, the problem is broadcast, HDCP (DRM), the tv is not HDCP compliant, it MAYBE limited in programming( there is no real standard yet, other than HDCP in it's self), and broadcasters have to think about customers with older equipment, so I don't see this as a issue for a while yet
as for audio if you aren't going to HT(Home Theater),5.1 or 7.1 the SPDIF is not reqiired, a 3.5MM to RCA adapter cable will do the trick, plug the 3.5 into the audio out jack and the RCA's to the TV, viola,stereo
but this is all speculation, till he decides on a make and model, we can't really say what he needs or doesn't need
btw,spec's say:
Supports Native HDMI 1.3a
Allows you to transfer high-definiton video and audio to your HDTV with a single HDMI cable.
so you cannot hook a SPDIF to the card

If the TV/Screen has HDMI it will work, if it doesnt it wont. Simple as that =)

HD tv, you go boy, looks great, maybe next year I can afford one

Its cheap for such specifications, and I believe it would be really cool to have such TV that can provide a quality of 1080p

@OvrClkr
Thank you for effort, you really helped me! also special thanks to Number13

I will probably post later if I bought the TV in a small period of time and write what I would experience!
