PC to TV setup

HI ,

Can someone with better knowledge of electronics let me know if this will work when it comes to being the correct cables for both.

Here is the PC I want to use:

Here is the tv:

Here is the cable i want to use for sound:

Here is the cable for video:

Will all these cable ends fit in correctly between my PC and tv? Plz let me know.

thx

The link for your PC just goes to a motherboard and not a full PC. If that is the motherboard you're using in your PC, then the answer would be no as it does not have a DVI port. A simple fix would be to install a low-end graphics card with a native HDMI output in the PCI-Ex16 slot. This would resolve the need for your audio cable and you could then just run HDMI to HDMI from the PC to the TV.

If I ordered this card http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=8139481&CatId=7005 would it be compatible with this mobo:

If so, then I would just need something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/15ft-Gold-2...=US_Video_Cables_Adapters&hash=item415b1f1301

Plz let me know. thx

This PowerColor Radeon HD5450 would be the cheapest card I would recommend since it has a native HDMI port. Rather than getting that DVI to HDMI cable, something like this 15ft HDMI cable would replace the need for both audio and video cables.

Where on that card does it say you can use HDMI on it or am I missing something?

thx

First off, if you look at the first image, you can see the HDMI port (the one in the middle)
Second, under the Specifications tab it lists:

Ports

HDMI 1 x HDMI

D-SUB 1 x D-SUB

DVI 1x DVI-D
