tv as pc gaming monitor image
nathaniel_
My new tv is a magnavox, and it is a 32" LCD. I also bought a new computer, and i think it would be cool to be able to play PC games on the bigscreen. also, just regular internet browsing would be nice to do on the big screen as well.
If you can help me at all, thank you very much.
What does the plug on the TV look like? color? shape?
Answer
The only problem in connecting a PC to a TV is the connectors. See below for link to connector types.

HDMI, DVI, Component and VGA will carry HDTV signals. Composite and S will not.
So, do you have connectors on the TV and PC that match?
In some cases, you can convert from one type to another easily. In other cases, you need a converter.
Many PCs do not have any TV out connector except the VGA connector that normally connects to the monitor. In that case, you may need to add a video board to your PC. Without knowing anything nmore about your PC and TV, this is all I can tell you. email me with your connector data.

Does screen size affect computer performance or is it just resolution that does this?
Im planning on buying a tv to replace my 22" 1080p computer screen, this tv will be used for xbox gaming, pc gaming and TV.
My question is; if i decide to get a (just an example) 27" 1080p TV will my computer slow down whilst playing games?
TL;DR: Does screen size affect computer performance or is it just resolution
Answer
Just the resolution.
The computer uses absolutely the same amount of computing power to drive a 70" HDTV at 1920x1080 resolution as a 21" 1920x1080 desktop monitor. Both displays have 2,073,600 pixels that need to be processed.
If your computer can run stuff decently on a 1920x1080 desktop monitor, it will run it exactly the same way on a big-screen 1920x1080 HDTV.
Go for it!
