Graphics card compatibility?

[MJL]

Right so I have the 1GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GT430 - DVI,HDMI,VGA - DirectX® 11 (Graphics Card obv...) and I wanted to know how many ports of each I have on the PC.
Also will it be compatible with this monitor/television...

ASUS 24T1E 23.6 inch Full HD TV / Monitor 1960x1080 1080P 300cd/m2 1000:1 5ms 2xHDMI 1xVGA Speakers Black

Oh and what do you think of it, I need a monitor/TV with at least 2x HDMI ports.

Thanks

Well from what you've put the GT430 has a HDMI port, the TV also has a HDMI port, so with a long enough HDMI lead (with the correct connection i.e. male and male most probably) you should be up and running

Right thanks, I just wanted to be sure that there isn't any other connection type or anything like that.

Well, there are the two other connections on the graphics card (DVI & VGQ) but the HDMI port is completely different so you'll be able to get the right one, it'll match the HDMI ports on the back of your TV (they look like Nintendo DS charger ports, little semicircle shaped)

A link to an image of what a HDMI port looks like if you have any doubt

Thanks again Micky although I do know what an HDMI port looks like, shame I've never actually had the chance to use one, im still on Standard Def in my room!
Oh and +rep

 

[MickyG]

Haha, well I thought I'd put it up just in case

Yeah I'm only just using them myself, got a HDTV for Christmas and plugged in the PS3 (mainly my bro's I'm more of a PC gamer myself ) via HDMI, superb quality, brilliant clarity on text

Thanks for the rep, always appreciated

Your welcome and yeah I might be getting the monitor, well Im not sure if its a tv or monitor but the ASUS 24T1E looks good as I stated above and it could also double up for me to be able to play on me xbox at the same time, although I like to use my computer whilst playing xbox.

 

[MickyG]

I'm not honestly sure which it is to be honest, from your description it is probably designed to be used as both, seeing as using your TV as a monitor is increasing, but at 23.6" it's going to be a good sized monitor and TV

[MJL]

Yeah, well Im going to have a look around and see what I find, thanks for the support though.

No problem, I'm sure you'll find one you like yourself. That's the main thing, people can review something as great/amazing or bad/terrible but in the end, if you don't like the look of it or something like that, you won't buy it Post a picture or a link of what you choose though, I'd be interested to know
