What kind of microphone did you use to narrate the video. Excellent quality. Please reply

@FoodOnCrack Sound goes through the cable on newer cards. I think on older cards, as in more than 1 year old or even older, you had to run the audio from you sound card to the vid card. On DVI, you can convert to HDMI, but you will have to run audio separately.

@FoodOnCrack With some cards, the sound will go through the HDMI by connecting a cable from inside your case to the side of your video card.

does a hdmi videocard make sound go through the hdmi cable or is there a device for it?

@FoodOnCrack Bigger, usually considering most flat screen TV are at least 19 inches and can go to 60 or more. Sharper, however, is not necessarily true. First, the highest resolution TVs are 1080p, or 1920x1080 pixels. On the other hand, a monitor like the Dell 3007WFP has a resolution of 2560 x 1600. Compared to a 26 or 32" 1080p TV at the same distance, the Dell will look sharper (unless you are too far away for your eyes to discern that level of detail.)

it saves cash to connect a pc to tv, it also doesnt reqs speakers and it is bigger and sharper

@uhti10 My current pic for a HTPC card is the ATI 5450. Newegg has them for as low as $25 after rebate. If you're not gaming, you just can't beat that.

@lazylewbob Depends on what you're going to use it for. That vid card is probably actively cooled, so you'll need to be aware of noise in a HT environment, but you shouldn't be at any shortage of power for music/video playback. I'd say the biggest concern would be HD space, go grab yourself at least a TB. |
