Hi, i was wondering if i could connect a PS3 to a LCD panel and some standard 2.1 computer speakers.

Is is possible?

What cables would i need?

sigh..
firstly yes u can..
2ndly depending on the type of LCD u are using.
home entertainment LCD is definately a yes
PC LCD depends. 24 inch and above u should hv HDMI ready
22 inch and below u need a DVI-HDMi converter..
audio.. go get a rca female to female thn boleh.

will there be a loss of audio quality?

And don't forget HDCP

Owh... forgot to mention.

Im using a Samsung 226BW that is HDCP compliant.

User reports online claim it will work with 720p perfectly (with a slight thinning effect due to the slightly different aspect ratio) and with 1080p it downscales abit.


Now im wondering about the audio....

The HDMI to DVI connections dont include audio apparently. I'll have to figure a way to connect computer speakers to the PS3. Is it possible?


Optical out converters perhaps?

u can stil use the jack tat came with it. meaning the red and white jack thn using a rca female to female connect it to a green female audio jack. u can get all these at lowyat or any audio shop.

i was like u previously.. but optical is freaking exp. unless u got cash to spare.



tats how it looks like ok..

Wow u all play PS3 on ur PC LCD wahaha... :thumps

no money to buy home LCD ma. so opt for the cheaper one lo

agree

its better to use a 24" PC LCD rather than those economic rm2.6k 32" LCD TV, the 24" LCD support full HD

You won't be able to see the difference really on such a small screen.

However, the screen estate is awesome if you intend to use the screen for your normal computer use as well.

LCD monitor will always produce more crispier and sharper image, and also great color dynamic range than any entry level LCD TV

plus, bigger screen or not, it's just depends on how far u sit in front of the monitor/tv

Any idea where can get HDMI to DVI cable from?

What type of DVI we're talking here?

Compare ur PC LCD with Samsung F96 series LCD?









Samsung LCD TVs offer unparalleled picture quality that can be optimised for gaming at the touch of a button. It allows for H-sharpness and a faster response time in the games.
In addition, its powerful surround sound effects produce a magical environ-ment of wonder that is filled with excitement and joy.

lol... how much is that?
a Dell 24" only rm2.2k iinm

Thanks for the replies guys.

Im still torn... dont know if i wanna play Crysis/Bioshock etc (new PC)... or get a PS3.


500,000:1???

You gotta be kiddin me.

My 226BW's 3000:1 ratio is nothing to shout about. Sure, photos are realistic, but for text and internet surfing, the crappy matte screen on my T60 (really crappy, completely colour inaccurate, dim) produces far deeper blacks than the samsung. Reading is much easier on the small notebook than the desktop 3000:1 Display.

Hey i want to ask my TV is Sony KLV-S32A10
It only support till 720p
can anyone know if it with PS3 it image will be good?

It result

TEST RESULT SCORE
Before color temp (20/80) 9,050/8,150K Poor
After color temp (20/80) N/A
