    Hi im looking to connect my Wide, Flat screen TV to my computer. All i need is a tv card but don't know anything about these at all.

    So could anyone post any suggestions and could they explain what to look for when buying a tv card, whats the best specs and all that.

    Thank you

    Nope. TV Cards only have inputs (for antennas, VCR etc.). To connect to your TV you'll need an output from a graphics card. Depending on what graphics card you have, you might have a second output already, in which case you'll only need the appropriate adapter and wire to connect it to your TV. If you don't have a spare output, you'll need to either get another graphics card in addition to your current one, or replace your old card with a card with two outputs.
