amd fx 8350 black edition processor
12gb of ram
And
Gigabyte GA 990fxa ud7 rev. 3.0 motherboard

You should be able to just fine. Just plug in the HDMI cable like you would from any DVD/Blu-Ray player and away you go.

Of course you can, why would you not be able to use a HDMI display with your card that has a hdmi output port on it?

Now standard TVs are lousy gaming monitors but that is not your question.

yes you should be able to but if it is for gaming you might want to find the response time of that tv/monitor anything past 5ms isnt good for gaming IMO

Well I forgot to mention it will be for mostly gaming

The content on the display doesn't really matter. It will just show up like a monitor. Many TV's have problems with input lag and motion blurring though because they are designed for video content and not for gaming. Most people don't really have issues with it but some people really find it hard to play on some TV's due to it.

Hi

Short and sweet answer>>>YES YOU CAN.

For 2GB , You would get 1920 x 1080 on 32 or 40 inch tv. Just use HDMI or Display Port

See below a detailed info depending on what connection you will be using.

Here are the differences.

As in, 1,920x1,080/60 over HDMI is going to look the same as 1,920x1,080/60 over DVI and DisplayPort (assuming all other settings are the same). The logical extension of this is that the cables themselves also don't make a difference, in terms of picture "quality." Any cable capable of a specific resolution is either going to work over a certain distance, or not work.

HDMI
All TVs and most computer monitors have HDMI. It's easy to use, the cables are cheap, and best of all, it carries audio. If you're plugging your computer into a TV, your first choice should be HDMI. It will save you lots of hassle.
HDMI has limitations, though, and isn't always the perfect choice. For example, your TV likely has HDMI 1.4 connections, which max out at 3,820x2,160-pixel resolution at 30 frames per second. If you've gotten a new 4K monitor, you're limited to 30fps. Not until HDMI 2.0 will you be able to do 4K over HDMI at 60fps. You'll also need new hardware (and probably a new TV).
So in most cases HDMI is fine, but for really high resolutions and frame rates, one of these other options might be better.

DisplayPort
DisplayPort is a computer connection format. There is only one television with DisplayPort, and don't expect it to see much further adoption on the TV side. It's capable of 3,840x2,160-pixel resolution at 60fps, if you have at least DisplayPort 1.2 and the Multi-Stream Transport feature. If you're looking to connect a computer to a monitor, there's no reason not to use DisplayPort. The cables are roughly the same price as HDMI.
DisplayPort can also carry audio.

DVI
The video signal over DVI is basically the same as HDMI. The maximum resolution potential depends on the equipment, though. Some cables and hardware (called single-link) can only do 1,920x1,200, while others (dual-link) can do more.


So if you're using a TV, use HDMI. Since computer monitors don't usually have speakers, this isn't an issue.



Cheers Amit

See if your TV has a 'game' mode in the settings. This will help to reduce input lag.
