Hi, need to connect my pc to my tv but my existing graphics card doesnt have a hdmi output. Will be using it for standard viewing & watching Blu-Ray movies on. Dont want to go OTT looking at spending £50 max.

I will be outputting to a "40 Panasonic LED tv

thanks

What kind of card is it? A DVI to HDMI adapter is cheap enough but your card has to output audio through the same connection and that is dependent on the card.

If you can stretch to an extra 8 quid, this is a good card for a good price, it does 7.1 audio via hdmi:

Well if you're looking to replace the card pony up the few extra and spring for the R250 over the HD6450.

The card I linked is a replacement video card, no extra wires or adapters needed for the audio, just a regular hdmi cable to hook it up to your tv....
