hi,
i have bought a new lcd tv screen and want to connect it to my pc
graphics card (which is geforce 6800 Ultra). and i wanted to ask here
if anybody knows what will be the best option for me to output my
signal from the pc to the lcd screen. my differnent options are :

1.DVI -> component.
2. DVI -> VGA.
3.s-video -> composite
4.s-video -> component.

from what i've learned so far about this differnent formats, the best
choice would be between the first two, but which one will give better
picture on my tv ?

to add to my previous message a fifth option is the regular composite
to composite connection.

You absolutly do not want to use S-Video or composite which is even worse
since they will downscale any images you have to 480i beore tranmission.
Are you sure you Graphics card will support a DVI-I to YPrPB component or
DVI_I VGA adapter not many NVIDIA cards have this support? I know that many
PNY brand Nvidia cards do and they call it HDTV-Out as compared to S-Video
which they call TV-Out.. If your TV supports DVI then you want to use
DVI-DVI.
