I can't remember...it's been a while :(

If So stops posting as of right now, and I keep continuing at my rate, it will take me 9 years to catch up. Damn!

That's why you've got to increase your rate :evil:

So so, is the component vs s-video for a computer connection or DVD player connection?

computer.

You said it's just a regular tv right? It's probably not worth it.

I noticed color got very slightly better going to component but sharpness etc didn't seem to change. I only tested with a DVD though, not a computer input as I didn't get the component adapter until I got my projector.

If you missed it, I said more about this above.

Ah, thanks for pointing out the above post...it got lost in the suffle :eek:

I guess I'll stick with svideo then. <shrug>

You can try it, no harm in that except I doubt it would be worth it.

What adapter do you need?

the one to get component out from a 9600...IIRC, it was DVI->Component, but it might have been VGA->component

Oh right. I forgot what card you said you had.

I think the 8500 uses the VGA to component and the 9x00 series uses the DVI adapter.

Hey, do you want mine? I guess I don't really have a use for it anymore now that I have a 6600gt.

Thanks for the offer, but if there's no tangible benefit (which, I think you're right, there probably isn't), I don't see a reason to waste shipping $.

I need at least a decade of buffer.

On Feb 17th this year I calculated that it was going to take over 90 years for me to get to lifer. :)

Alright then :)

Plus if you don't have component cables, that would add to the cost too.

All thanks to threads like this.

I'm kinda annoyed that the original NCRI thread was locked because it was going to beat the 'longest thread ever' to 10kposts (it would have hit in may, I bet) and then that thread was locked.
