What is D-Sub/VGA? It only has 2 input namely DVi(White Color) and VGA(blue color). Since I used DVI for PS3, I will have to use the blue one for PC. Any help?

I use the VGA cable that came as a bundle with my monitor. You think its the cable problem?
Yes I did. My GC does not have a VGA port. Thats why have to buy the VGA-DVI converter. The difference is really big. My monitor's optimum resolution is 1600X1050 and when I use the DVI cable, the pictures are really sharp, crystal and full screen. When I use VGA cable, if I use 1600X1050, its not full screen and the image sucks. You can see the font and the icon all have the blur effect on them. Any idea?

Refresh rate? Is it the one where it shows 60hertz? If its not, where do I change it? Which refresh rate is the best?
My graphic card is 8800GT. After I reinstall the monitor driver, the native resolution appear and it now seems like better than before. However, when I switch to PS3, the monitor keep saying that the resolution is not optimum. How to tell PS3 to use the optimum resolution of 1680X1050?

err. ps3 just set as 720p as ur monitor seems not support 1080p

If I use 720P, will it affect the image quality? Frankly speaking the image that I get from playing Dante's Inferno is quite good although its not something to shout about. Maybe i will have to play game with glorious graphic to check it out.

By the way, I am using the auto thing to set the display setting.

no worries, in fact there's an argument going on mentioned that output in 720p will serve better quality..
and most the ps3 games work best at 720p...

100Hz and above are actually not more than clever, and in some cases, remotely useful gimmicks.

It does have its functions, and it usually carries it out quite well.

Playing games is actually worse with 100Hz and all that turned on.

When the TV is processing the frame, you get input lag, and you might notice a slight delay in movement onscreen and the input of commands.

Also, the TV is adding frames, which might cause some artifacts to appear.

For games, it is better to turn off all forms of processing (Noise reduction, black level enhancement, motionflow, etc.) altogether to try and reduce input lag as much as possible.

its really contradicting from what I have read earlier on.. huh!

I dont think there is a different between cheap and expensive HDMI cable. There are all the same.
I'm using Samsung P2770H for my PS3. The picture is so beautiful and the monitor itself look so stylish. Really recommend to those who want to use an LCD Monitor with their PS3.

Yes, I definitely agree with this no difference on the output. Better get normal HDMI cable, works fine for me! I even borrow my frens MONSTER cable, obviously no diff on the output.
