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
 
If you care about blacklite bleed, dont buy the 2253bw. Exept that, its a good monitor, its fast, not too bright, good gray and good colors.
 
Could you give me some specifics about the problem? I'm not really familiar with LCD Monitors. This particular one is the best that I could come up with after several hours of research. Thanks, Ray
 
This is a black screen. The cam did add some blue but w/e. Look at the top. Thats bleed.

Do you already have the quadro? If not, is there any particular reason you need it? I can't imagine they'd help for video rendering, since that stuff is mostly CPU related, afaik.
 
Thanks for the picture! This bleeding effect seems to be a problem with most monitors that I've been reviewing. Hopefully it's something that's not to annoying. I saw the Samsung 226BW at Circuit City in which I like the looks of. For that reason I was looking at the 2253BW which is it's newer version.
As for the Quadro card, no I haven't purchased it yet. I was looking at that particular card due to it being in the middle of the road of the high end Nvidia cards. I do video editing and just wanted a nice card. Again thanks for the picture, now I know what people are referring to. Ray
 
I dont think you need a High end quadro. @ 900$

These cards are made for HardCore Cad(Not talking about OMGGG !! Ive made a chair in Blender woooot!!11!!!!) . For video, a card in the 100-150 Range is Extremely good. If you need a card for Gaming, video decoding and stuff like that, 8800GTS 8800GTX 9800GTX 9800Gx2 are High end cards but they cost 1/2 to 1/3 of the Quadro.
