DVI Card?

[Scott]

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.gateway2000 (More info?)

I'm going to be pairing a Samsung 173P lcd monitor (with analog and
digital output) to an E-3200 with an onboard Rage video card. I'd
like to get a DVI card that will take full advantage of this monitor's
digital output. TV-out option would be welcome, too. Any suggestions
for a card to do this? The E-3200 has bne AGP slot.

Thanks!
Scott

Oh, I just checked, and the Rage video card is mounted in the AGP
slot...it's not integrated. So I assume the AGP slot is the place to mount
a newer DVI card.

Yes, that is correct. If you need good graphics, but don't need high-end
speed, a low-end card such as a Radeon 9200/9250 with a DVI output will do
fine (or a corresponding nVidia, like a 5200).

Note that DVI cables don't usually come with monitors, and are expensive at
retail - you may want to order one from www.newegg.com (or a similar
place) - like other cables, the cost is usually a fraction of what it is if
you buy at retail.

Edward,

I'll be using this computer a lot for scanning and image editing...but no games, so
I won't need a high-speed card.

Surprisingly, the Samsung 173P monitor comes with both analog and DVI
cables--very thoughtful of them.

Edward,

I'm looking at the Radion 9200 SE, per your suggestion. What does "Integrated
TV-Out support up to 1024x768 resolution" mean exactly? My LCD montor's
native resolution will be 1280 x 1024.

Thanks again!
Scott

That means it will support a TELEVISION up to that resolution. Has
nothing to do with the monitor resolution.

Ed,

In looking at the nVidia card, I see it has a TV Out connector, but
it doesn't look like a standard tv cable jack, but rather an "S"
connector, which I believe is a higher-quality connection. Is there
an adapter to plug a simple TV cable into the card?

Thanks!
Scott
