Hey everyone.
A couple months ago I purchased an eVGA 7900GS without HDCP for about $160. Recently I've been considering purchasing an HDTV for pretty much everything - watching awesome-quality tv, movies, and most importantly using it as a monitor for my computer.
However the question about HDCP has come up and I haven't been able to find substansial information about it. My card is not HDCP-compatible, so what does that mean if I buy an HDTV that is HCDP enabled? Will I still get a nice 1920x1080p resolution without any bumps or anything? By the way I have 2 DVI outputs and an S-Video/Component output.
Also I've noticed when hooking up my computer to a normal TV it becomes horrendously blurry and hard to read text. Is this a universal problem, and is it the quality nice and clear and readable with an HDTV?
EDIT: I just looked at Newegg, and apparently they removed the HDCP version from their website. Any ideas why?
EDIT #2: Under the specifications, it says for Ports & TV Out "HDTV / S-Video / Composite Out" but I have 2 DVI ports and an S-Video shaped port. Is the HDTV-out port the 2 DVI ports combined or something? I'm confused.
