So I already have a monitor hooked up to my gpu's hdmi slot, it only has one hdmi slot (I'm using the hdmi to enable my monitor's freesync). My question is, if I use a dvi to hdmi cable, hook it to my tv, would it work? (I have no more use for the tv unless it becomes a secondary monitor).
 
Solution
It should work. You may not be able to display HDCP (high definition copy protected) content on it, and it won't support audio, but it should work at 1080p.

Thank you! That's all I needed to know :D

As long as the audio travels through my desktop speakers, I shouldn't have any problems. :D
