Your computer is fine.

your video card, is a nice one, and is fine too.

But:

You are not allowed to attach your tv to your computer.

you are allowed to attach a additional flat screen panel to that video outlet of your video card.

Further, you are allowed to install a tv-card into one of your video card slots of your computer.

You are allowed to watch tv from your monitor. Or from a added monitor (dual monitor system).

To watch tv: You can either watch tv on your monitor of your computer (without needing a additional monitor, as one, would be enough), or you can watch tv from your tv, by plugging your tv not into your computer, but into your bus bar.

A computer is a computer, and a tv is a tv.

But you can watch tv from your computer.

And you can watch tv from your tv.

But don't get both items mixed up.

In fact, you can probably get better tv, and more tv stations from your computer, if you do the settings right, and ad a tv card to your computer.

If you only like to watch videos, you need to do nothing, as just go the website of "blip.tv" and enjoy.

Thank you, for your attention.
