I'm typing this on my new 37" LCD TV (Olevia). It looks great (especially for $500!) but i'm questioning if it can look better.

My video card has two DVI outputs. My TV has an AGP input, as well as HDMI...no AVI.

Right now i'm using a DVI-->VGA adapter and a VGA cord to my TV. Would it be worth it to pick up a DVI-->HDMI adapter?

DVI/HDMI would probably look a bit more crisp since there would be now Digital to analog and back to digital conversion. I would say to go with DVI/HDMI.

AGP input..? :confused:

I'm guessing you mean VGA?

Do you know of a cord or converter?

Holy crapola!

Thanks man!

I left my vga-->vga cable at home when i moved (doh!) and had to go buy a new one. $51 at bestbuy...i said "screw that" and went to radio shack, $20. But $6 for avi-hdmi!

Awesome...
