I am looking to buy a new pc but would love to use my tv as a monitor, does anyone know if I can do this and if yes what cables I will need.
My frontroom tv has HDMI and RGB but the one in my bedroom only has HDMI.
Ohhhhhh Miiiiick! Josh? Keith? Bueller? Anyone here to help with the question? :D :D
