dvi to hdmi questions

[computergeekguy]

Hey guys

I have a question. Currently i have a tv setup like this.

I have my video card witch is an geforce 8800 gts. It has two dvi connectors.

Anyway my tv had a vga input not a dvi so i got a converter that went dvi to vga.

The picture looks good enough but i want to upgrade to blue ray

So i was thinking what if i went from dvi to hdmi.

It is uncompressed so the picture will look nicer but this my question

By going from dvi to hdmi will i still be able to keep my 1980 X 1800 res?

will it put any black bars in my screen cause i currently don't have any lol

will it change the way my screen looks other than better quality?

Any replies will be appreciated

Yes you should so long as the TV is reconized in device manager the only differences are DVI to VGA is taking a digitial out out and analog in. DVi out to HDMI allows for sound to be transmitted over a digital output.
(if I'm mistaken please feel free to correct me)

Thanks for your reply Thefabe

I do agree with whith you that i probly should got to hdmi but i was wondering about a few things first. for example

1:Is the quality of the screen noticably higher when u change from vga to hdmi

2: will it tax my system for more recorces to do hdmi? and how much if so. I dont so much worry about this one as i have a faily powerfull computer.

3: Will going to hdmi require me to change any settings on my computer such as screen resolution or anything like that

4: will it make my video games / dvd's look any better?

Bassicly i would like to know all the pros and cons of the hdmi system.

Any replies will be apriciated Thanks

P.S. I have learned that hdmi has adio capabilities but i already have a high teck adio system set up via s/pdif so i am not so much worried about sound qualitty just video quality thanks
