Hello peoples

Here's the story, on another forum i have this guy who is insisting that the AMD Phenom X3 710 requires an HD monitor to work and that if you don't use a HD monitor (you instead use a normal monitor (non-HD))



i.e. nothing will be output onto the screen

So i would like to prove it to him once and for all that this is BS in its purest form

Anyone else here agree with me that any ordinary monitor will work with the CPU?

The guy clearly misunderstood what the article is all about.

It says that in order to view HD content on your pc obviously a "*HD monitor is required." and not so much that the cpu can only work with a HD Monitor.

But you do know that you are totally wrong about having an HD monitor to run the CPU!

The CPU will run fine with a normal monitor, its just that if you want to watch HD content you will need HD compliant Hardware for example a BluRay drive, a HD monitor, a GPU that can output HD content etc.

BUT THE CPU DOES NOT REQUIRE A HD MONITOR TO FUNCTION
