screen is a very shoddy, decade old TFT monitor, so the HDMI from the VGA card links in to my Sony Bravia 37" KDL37EX403

I did the same thing. I use my TV (42" Panasonic Viera) as my monitor and leave it on 1080p. Everything displays AMAZING.

actually I'm not using the Bravia as the primary but running extended desktop. Means we're still able to surf while watching TV/HTPC hosted media etc. Perhaps 1 day I'll switch to using it as the primary but at the moment its nice to have the options.

Yea that above is what i built when i gave her the HP... the HP isnt no slouch either though.

I really wanna get me a couple more 4gig sticks to max out at 16 though. Plus i can feel the heat when i play SWTOR so might have to look into liquid cooling or at least an aftermarket heatsink/fan
