6600GT & svga-out question (& wireless ?)
Since I am probably going to buy a 6600 GT for the gaming ability, I'd
like to know about the video out - I seem to remember the specs as having svga-out fir a TV hookup. Does this mean I can play a nice HD .avi movie or TV show & watch it on a TV? If so, will it look good on a 36 inch TV? ---- Finally & separate question (kinda) what are the options nowadays to get a video out of my computer, wireless to a TV in another room? All I can find online is old tech crap & bizarre prices, & not really informing me as to what I need to know. If it helps any, I do have set up a wireless home network, though only wireless B (11 Mbps - not fast enough for video) - but if it helped, wireless G 108 Mbps is pretty cheap now, and I might upgrade. So - either get the svga signal from the 6600GT to the TV wireless, or use a wireless G 108 Mbps router to get an .avi video file out of the computer, and into some kind of receiver/converter & into the TV. Thanks.. ...D. |

You will also have to get the audio output from the sound card and either plug it into the TV or into a hi-fi receiver. So - either get the svga signal from the 6600GT to the TV wireless, or use a wireless G 108 Mbps router to get an .avi video file out of the computer, and into some kind of receiver/converter & into the TV. The "receiver/converter" will have to be a computer... Really, there's no cheap way around lugging some PC-sized equipment to the TV. -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means.
