I'm using my 50" LD tv as a monitor for the time, i did this for a long time in the past also and i had no issues. Back then i used one of those wires with the pin connectors in a rectangle (i don't know the name, i'm sorry). These days i'm using a HDMI wire and i'm seeing while the resolution says 1920x1080 it is infact 1280x720. Now i googled and it said this could be a thing with HDMI and computer to TV connects. So i was fine with that and started looking for a new wire, but meanwhile i started playing the new Civ game, the one in space and it is 100% in 1920x1080, so the TV CAN display that resolution with the HDMI wire after all. Anyone got a clue with that limited information? Can i make my TV show 1920x1080 with a HDMI wire? I use a Nvidia GTX 770 and the specific make of the TV i can't remember, sorry, it's a bit old, but as i said it's a 50" LG TV. Edit: I set the Input Label in the TV's settings to PC and now all fullscreen games are apparently 1920x1080, but the desktop is still 1280 when it says it's 1920. Edit2: VGA was the name of the cable, i used a DVI to VGA converter as the TV only has a VGA port. Only kind of Google answer i found that made sense was that the TV is interpreting the HDMI signal as "unreliable" and does some kinda scaling/converting to what it thinks it's seeing, but with a VGA connection it's 100% convinced it's seeing a computer signal and plays nice. Just so weird that it shows proper 1920x1080 with some games, oh well. Dongattack fucked around with this message at 02:30 on Oct 30, 2014 |

What's the state of projector PC gaming? I'm trying to read up and learn my way around it, and it seems that input lag isn't such a big problem anymore with newer projectors and you're starting to get some affordable solutions for gaming. Anyone braved these waters recently?
