VGA/DVI/HDMI and make the upstairs TV the second monitor to my computer. But then, would it really make a difference playing on a 47" TV vs. sitting directly in front of my 22" LED on the PC

I've found the reverse transition to be fairly easy. PS3 mostly on the 46" tv down to the 22" LED PC gaming. -- nm - Shaun Mar 26, 12:58
Can you run S-Video from the PC to the TV? will that work? - spamlet Mar 26, 12:37 4

    - Obviously your video card has to have s-video out... - oblique Mar 26, 12:44 1
