Hi there, newbie wilkiewilkie here...

I recently bought an XFX GeForce 8800GTS 320 MB from Aria.

However, I'm having a little difficulty in connecting it to my Samsung LE32N7 HDTV. The picture quality appears to a little ropey, to say the least.

What I'd like is a recommendation for a cable that'll take the DVI output signal from the 8800GTS in my PC & send it to the HDMI input of the Samsung HDTV.

As you may be able to tell, I don't know a great deal about these things.:confused:

Any help you can give me will be most welcome. Thank you.

HDMI imputs tend to be more reliable imho.

It wont give a better picture doing stuff like surfing the net as the text will be slightly fuzzy, was on mine anyway, but as a media pc connection it will allow you to connect to a big screen tv to watch stuff you have recorded etc, could possibly use it to play games on too.

Ideally you would be better off using the vga input if your tv has one, this give a picture as good as any monitor does.
