Is this pc a good setup and bang for the buck ?
ASRock 4CoreDual-VSTA LGA 775 VIA PT880 Ultra ATX Intel Motherboard $59.99
Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 Allendale 1.8GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor $170.00

i can go with a better cpu but im on a budget, also I already have 3 gigs of kingston ddr ram.|||http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Mo… This for you Stuart A. This a cool board because if has a little bit of everything. I would bump the processor up as recommended earlier. As for the memory you can only use 2 sticks at a time, one or the other if I'm not mistaken. If you are buying this board to try and use your memory and have no intention of getting DDR2 I'd say OK. If you plan to buy memory I would get a board that can take 4 sticks of DDR2 instead. Also get 2 X 160 GB SATA II drives and run RAID instead of 1 400 GB drive. A few bucks more but I think you will be happier.|||Seems a good system, be sure motherboard has features you want ie: firewire, esata, lots of USB and audio connectors that work with your speaker system, for example spdif out etc. The only other issue is, you talk of DDR Ram and for this motherboard I.m pretty sure you need DDR2 Ram. Take care.|||its seems good, i would always go with an intel motherboard but yours should be fine. i reccomend you spend 40 more $ and get the
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 2.13GHz / 2MB Cache / 1066MHz FSB / Dual-Core / OEM / Socket 775 / Processor
it will make a significant difference. if your building your own pc you still need cd/dvd drives and cpu fans and hard drive fans and stuff, but if your just upgrading it should be good.|||its ok, but your processor is going to be a major bottleneck with that video card.

How can I hookup my PC to my HDCP compliant LCD?
I have an HDCP complaint LCD with two HDMI inputs. I have a PC with a non-HDCP video card. I was under the impression that as long as the SOURCE didn't require HDCP the picture should display. Shouldn't my non-HDCP signal still show up on my HDCP monitor? If not, are there any effective ways to bypass this other than purchasing a HDCP card? If so, why else would my picture be blank?|||HDCP encryption is initiated and controlled by the source, so you are right, HDCP should not be the issue here.
It sounds like there is something wrong with the plug-n-play negotiation. The PC is ending up either thinking that there is no display attached or it is putting out a signal that the TV can not cope with.
If you have dual outputs then connect up a monitor as the primary, then you can see what you are doing in terms of resolution and refresh rates on the (seconadary) TV.
If you don not have dual outputs, then read the TV specs to find an acceptable resolution and refresh rate, then use the default monitor driver rather than the plug-n-play and carefully force the PC to the resolution and refresh rate the TV should work with. You may want to try a re-boot with the working monitor attached to confirm that it really does come back to where it should be.
If that does not work, beg, borrow or buy a HDMI source to confirm that the TV actually works.|||yea HDCP is just for Hi-Def like Blue Ray or HD-DVD. It's not required for a display to show on your LCD monitor. Did you try plugging in different ports, like Vga or DVI? Try looking at the monitor menu for input changing or what not.

The Better of the Graphics card?
I need a good graphics card but don't want to spend alot of money on one when I am a casual gamer. I have been looking at the ATI Radeon 4850. But of the cheaper one which one is beter.

Best 1 but the 4870 with gddr5 is so much better for like $30 more and the 4850 with gddr5 is also so much better!|||This one is the best, although an ATI Radeon 4850 is better:

Pertaining to video cards, what are GTS, GS and so on?
eVGA 640-P2-N821-AR GeForce 8800GTS 640MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card - Retail|||Different specs.
The 8800GTS has 96 stream processors while the GTX has 128.
The GTS has 640MB of Memory, while the GTX has 768 megs of ram.
It's just mainly the specifications, think of it like a car....
You have the SE models, the LE's, and the GT's.....same principle's apply.|||Nvidias video card names, the end of the names, range from low power versions to high power versions. Example: The GS is not nearly as good as the GT, the GT is not nearly as good as the GTX and so on. The names of cards changes a little bit with each card series but they are all based on the same theroy; the bigger and more extravagant the better. The 8800 cards are part of a brand new series, so the names are not yet all known, however, it is good to know that (for now) the GTX is going to be better than the GTS.

FINAL QUESTION about VID card?
I have PCV-RS430G
*600 Watt PSU +2GB RAM
currently have ati radeon 9550 256mb vid card
planning to upgrade it with
HIS Hightech H165XTQT512GDDAN-R Radeon X1650XT 512MB 128-bit GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X IceQ Turbo HDCP Video Card
WILL THIS WORK??? Yes or No? Why or why not
also, will the DVI to VGA converter work on my VGA monitor? since this video card is dual DVI|||Yes it will work, because they both use the AGP 4x/8x slot. That is all you have to make sure, is that your computer's motherboard has the appropriate slot to accommodate the card.
Some video cards are for the PCI slot, and some for the AGP. The difference is that PCI are a little bit bigger of slots, and AGP are faster, that is why most are AGP.
As for the DVI adapter, you should be fine as long as the adapter does its job :)

About the vid card fitting into my case?
HIS Hightech H195PRQT512DDAN-R-V2 Radeon X1950PRO 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 AGP 8X IceQ 3 Turbo HDCP Video Card
I have p4sd-vx Motherboard...
Above video card is longer compare to other video cards. I'm wondering if this card will have trouble fitting into my MB...
*Anybody know its dimensions????|||Shouldn't have too much of a problem. It's more an issue of case space than motherboard size.
Just make sure you watch the cables.|||This is an AGP card if you are trying to put in the white (usually) slots those are PCI , if your motherboard has a longer brown (usually) slot this is for AGP cards. That's where you wanna put that. Also this a larger card make sure you arrange your cables to allow it to fit.
