What TV would be best to use as a TV and computer monitor?

Q. I plan to use my next TV as a computer monitor because I cant afford both.

I'm looking to get a 1080p LED, not too picky on any particular brand. but it has to be under or around 350$

What would work best to serve both of these functions?Are there any specific cables need to have it work as both? and will 60hz to 120 hz really matter, as I am mainly using the Tv for gaming.

A. Most TV's come with a VGA port on the back that you can easily connect to the desktop. HDMI is better but you need a video card that has it built in instead of using a DVI to HDMI convertor. As far as the refresh rate goes you wont notice a difference. I use a 32 inch toshiba flat screen with 720p and its awesome to play on. I also have my cable running through to my TV as well and just switch to the input I want.


I installed a new video card and now my desktop and icons are blurry?
Q. I recently installed a geforce 9500gt graphics card and have been having some problems. After I did the install I rebooted my computer and noticed that everything was blurry. I'm using a 32 inch LG tv as a monitor and am connecting it to my computer with an avg to dvi cable. I've tried toggling the screen resolution and that didn't help. The strange thing is that video games look fine when I play them but everything else does not look very sharp. Any ideas?

A. It is normal for this to happen coming out of a VGA connection, text needs very precise pixel alignment and a very clean signal for a really sharp image, they usually only get very sharp on computer monitors because they can run at the exact native resolution and are designed to be sharp. With TV's it is hard to match the video card to the exact native resolution of the TV. Find out what your TV's native Resolution is and set it to as close to this as possible on the Nvidia control panel, most new full HD LCD screens are 1920 x 1080, some of the cheaper TV's are only HD ready (720p) which means it will not be as sharp as full HD. The best way to connect to a TV is with a Digital DVI or HDMI out from the graphics card. The newer video cards like the gt240 have 3 outputs HDMI, DVI, AND plain old vga so are the better ones to go for if connecting to a TV, especially HDMI as you also get the audio to the TV as well.
