If it has an HDMI/VGA input, sure...

(I'm typing from the comfort of a reclining couch on a 42" LED tv as we speak, utilizing the GTX1060's display port output)

If your GPU does not have an HDMI output, there are Display port to HDMI cables on Amazon for $8, and, DVI/VGA adapters...

Question from Udamalpet : "Can i use tv as monitor for my cpu"

I hv sony bravia w95B 55 inch. Can i use this screen as monitor to my cpu? Pls advise.

Yes I you can use ur TV u need an HDMI cable as well as a good GPU and remember if u are playing competitive games there is input lag . This might hamper ur performance.

You can not use anything as monitor for your cpu.
You need a full PC/laptop setup to do so. CPU alone can not work!
