Analog TV signal through DVI-D???

[Proprioceptive]

So I noticed that my Dell 2405fpw monitor has a DVI-D connection. Will I be able to watch analog tv using an analog tv tuner on my monitor if I'm using a DVI-D cable from the monitor to my GPU?

Yes, the tuner will digitize it before sending it to your video card.

standard definition tv is going to look bad.

sd tv is like 640x480 play a game in that res see what it looks like on that monitor it's going to look bad.

Yeah, I know, I will be using this rig for gaming as well, but I don't have digital cable or satellite, so I'm stuck with basic analog cable for now. Later on I'll upgrade.
