I have the HD850 too, and use it to upconvert to 720P.
It connects to my monitor via a HDMI.
I am undecided about whether I like the resulting picture
or not. On the plus side the picture is very sharp, and
fills the monitor screen completely. On the minus side,
I don't quite know how to describe it exactly, but the
sides of the picture are not the same as the middle.
It is a little like when I have the monitor stretch a normal
TV aspect ratio to fill the screen - the stretching is done
on the sides, not in the middle. But the upconvert is
nowhere near as annoying or distracting. Something isn't
right though.
Sorry for the non-technical description. You will see it,
and know it isn't right. And like I said, it may be very
slightly annoying, but I still watch it like that. I can't
stand to watch what the monitor produces when it stretches.
