    Nvidia Quadro FX3700 Connectivity??

    Reply Contact
    Hi,
    I'm about to purchase an LCD monitor and LCD TV for video editing. The monitor I am looking at is a Samsung 2253BW 22" LCD and the
    TV is a Samsung Series 4 450 LCD. The following is the connections for each;

    Samsung 2253BW LCD Monitor
    DVI
    Analog RGB

    Samsung Series 4 450 LCD TV
    1 HDMI (HD Multimedia) Interface rear
    Component video: 1 (Y, Pb, Pr)
    A/V inputs: rear
    S-Video Input: rear
    RF antenna input: rear
    Headphone jack: rear
    PC D-sub: rear

    I want to use the LCD TV for viewing during editing in order to get the colors as close as possible for final dvd burning. My videos are primarily used for SD and HD television.
    My question is connectivity. Will the Nvidia Quadro FX3700 accomodate both the monitor and TV with the connections shown above? This card has Two Dual-Link DVI Output Ports. Would I need a certain type of cable for connecting to the TV? If so, please give me the info needed for the correct cords to use.
    As you can see I'm a little ignorant when it comes to the connectivity, but I want to make sure I get the right card to accomodate this monitor and TV. Your help will be most appreciated! Thank you, Ray

    Yes, the quadro will work with that setup.  All you need is a DVI to VGA adapter (which will likely be included in the box) and you can connect one of the DVI outputs to the D-Sub input on the TV.
