LEDTV as Monitor: VGA or HDMI ?

Featured Replies

Hi guys -Just picked up a 1080p 60hz LED TV to use a computer monitor for FS & Gaming - Didn't come with any cables to hook up to PC - Luckily I found an old VGA cable in a drawer. Seems to be working fine - but images don't appear as sharp as they could. Will I notice a significant difference if I go buy an HDMI cable ? Keep in mind my Vid card has an miniHDMI port.

Hi,Yes, you will. Just ask if you can return the cable if things don't work out. I know they are a bit of $$.

Hi Jim,Thanks - Yes luckily Futureshop has a great return policy - I see some of them are pricey - I chose the "TV" because they didn't have any 24" monitors instock.. Even though I got the TV for $199 it seems as though once I get the HDMI cable I will be up so far in price I may aswell just wait and buy a real monitor.
