Monitor Type and Connection for Edius?

[TrackRanger Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close TrackRanger]

I've got Edius Broadcast 4.61, an NX card, and a Gigabyte 8800 GTS with dual monitors. I'm about to buy a new XDCAM-EX.
Question: I'm about to purchase a monitor to go with this setup. What's the best way to hook up a monitor to my Edius setup for HD preview? I want to get one that will work with my current system configuration if that's possible.

Questions:
What sort of monitor should I buy, what input(s) should it have, and how/where do I connect it into this setup to work as live preview with Edius.
(Do I need additional hardware? If so, what?)
Thanks for your time and suggestions

if you have the complete NX (with component out card) then all you need to do is buy a HD Plasma or HD LCD with component input connectors (most have them)

I use a Fujitsu 42" HD Plasma and I am happy

others use Sony Bravia LCD and are happy

My NX card has a front bay (Model is NHX-B10) with composite (RCA) Video and Audio LR In/Out, and S-Video In/Out as well as the 1394 connection to a camera/deck. The rear of the card in the computer has two S-Video, 3.5mm In/Out and 1 x 1394.

The card in the PC does not have the expansion board and no Y,Pb,Pr BNC connectors. Am I stuck?

OK, I'm stuck. How do I get unstuck? (Edit XDCAM-EX footage, and hook up a HD monitor)

Try to find a expansion board. Hook it up and your done.
