Hello
This weekend I built my gaming computer. The specs are:
Case: NZXT H440
Processor: Intel Core i5 4690K (not overclocket (yet))
Motherboard: MSI Z97A Gaming 6
PSU: Cooler Master G750M
RAM: G.Skill Trident X 2x4GB 2400 MHz
Monitor: Samsung UE22D5003BW (it's a TV)
I don't have a graphics card yet. I'm planning to get the MSI GTX 980 Ti in a month or so.
The problem is that when I connect my pc to the TV with my HDMI cable, I get really bad quality although I have all the latest drivers on my pc and the pc and TV are both set to 1080p. There's no problem with the HDMI cable because when I connect it to my father's TV, I get good quality. What could be the problem and how could I solve it? Could it be that the lack of a graphics card is the problem?

Considering that there is no issue when you connect the computer to your father's TV, the problem sounds like it's probably your TV. The integrated graphics on your CPU should handle 1080p without much trouble. Can you provide more details on what you mean by "bad quality"?
 
The text looks really blurry and the pictures also. I have posted a screenshot of my screen but I don't know if you could see the bad quality.
