geforce2 GTS with HDTV suport, so what?

[XPogiGTIVR6X]

Hey, acording to The specs on a The Geforce 2 GTS, it has HDTV suport. ok so what Can I do with it??? my dad just got a big screen with HD, And it would be awsome to play some games on it. but hell, I dont know any games that are HD, and I have a S-video out, but it is converted to RCA, Do I lose some Quality? or should I use a VGA to RGB converter and hook that up? and forget the Tv-out. all this extra features and nothing can use it! blah blah blah!

it has HDTV support that means itll will run at a resolution of 640x480 like a normal TV, only the Radeon 7500 has a TV out that is truly in HDTV (1024x768)....svideo is the best.....but it wont be anywhere near as nice as your computer....

*and hdtv goes a lot higher than that*

It has to do with the tv out module itself.... here's a link to a thread about my email here. (http://forums.overclockers.ws/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=58586&highlight=gainward)

so my video out can go to the Resolution of 1024x768???

I have a Visiontek Geforce2 GTS.

Just depends on what tv out module you have... it should tell you in the display properties
