crp Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I have the following nVidea geforce options to use for outputting MPEG4 and DivX from a dvi output to hdmi on my TV. TV max resolution is 1920x1080 (pc monitor as well). 8400 GS with 512 RAM 7900 GT with 1Gig RAM which would be the better choice for my purpose?

Unless you're planning on gaming on the HDTV, go with the 7900 GT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crp Posted March 28, 2011 Author Share Posted March 28, 2011 Unless you're planning on gaming on the HDTV, go with the 7900 GT.bummer the 7900GT kept on giving my win7 a BSOD (sometimes afterlogging in) and win7 could not figure out what the problem was.the 8400GS is in, but i found a good price on a geforce 210 with 1G. hopefully will be able to try it by the weekend.

crp Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 :-(The 210 did not work out. The hookup (DVI-HDMI) had the monitor just simply blanking out after a random amount of few minutes. Win7 recognized that there was a problem but could not come up with a solution and drivers from Asus and nVidea were of no help. <sigh> out 10 bucks.have a 9500 with 1G coming in, see how that goes.

ChipDoc Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Sorry it didn't work. At least it was cheap - a lot of MY lessons have cost me WAY more than ten bucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got an RMA from Directron. (btw: what the heck happened with them? bad, bad, bad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
