What's the details on the product Cheapy has on his PC that lets him play games on his TV?

I'd love to play games on TV in my living room...
 
I seem to remember he has some product that takes the HDMI signal and pipes it out to his TV on his command (as opposed to his PC Monitor). I'm pretty sure I didn't daydream this.. he can switch between his PC Monitor and the TV in his living room...
 
I don't know about Cheapy but I have a dual output Video card so I have one cable going to the monitor and a second to the TV through a DVI-HDMI cable. I also bought a cable to have the sound going from the PC to my stereo system. It's great for gaming and stuff on Hulu that you wouldn't normally be able to see through the PS3/360/Wii since they don't have the rights.

my card has a mini hdmi port. to say it's annoying is an understatement. Luckily my onboard graphics card works alongside my gpu, so i can still run the HDMI cable from that. Granted, I don't think i'll be able to use it for many games, but it's been working great for netflix and whatnot.

It's called Windows 7.
 
I emailed KasinoKing the other day got a reported post message from old forum. He was not aware that we had all moved

So on that basis, there may be others who do not know about the new forum, and therefore it might be worth sending them all an email.
