I have a Samsung 3d Plasma TV. Which video card should I use to output 3d pictures/video from my PC? Is there a video card that has HDMI out to the Samsung? Thanks, Peter |

Today all current video cards support HDMI. Some already have a HDMI connector. Usually they have DVI outputs. You can use an adaptor or even better a DVI to HDMI cable. The only issue with DVI is sound, but usually you can connect audio to the video card and the audio is channeled through the DVI and to the HDMI. Your Samsung may also have a dedicated audio input. All video cards can be used for side-by-side 3D. For full-resolution formats and games you should go for nvidia. NVIDIA announced the 3DTV Play Software for special 3D-TV formats. http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-tv-play.html There are some solutions for AMD/ATI as well, but as far as I can see they are still way behind.
