bro another question,

y do v need big capacity for PS3? eg..60GB or 80GB...

since v can use external hdd like 250 or 300GB to connect via USB at PS3..does this make any differences?

Thanks again

Yes. PS3 can connect to DVI while the computer connects to VGA. There's a input switch button to switch between these inputs (for 2407, you will have VGA, DVI, S-video, composite and component, so be prepare to push a few times to cycle through the inputs).

@ravemaster

wow thanks for the lovely information that able to purchase at Sri Computer.

What is the name for the things when u 1 2 get at Sri Computer? u know la staff there abit.....
---------
Anyway, since this is Technical thread...i would like to ask some question.

1) Does 40GB and 80GB have technology or differences (besides the card reader and the 4 USB) since 80GB is the latest...

2) Any heat problems for PS3 ( went to 1-U the guy mentione can play only 2 hours top then have to rest the system?? )

3) Only 80GB able to play backward "Original" PS and PS2 games? not for 40GB?

4) Is 40GB outdated or stop production from Sony..heard Engineers at Sony is implementing better feature in latest PS3...

Thanks

Added on January 7, 2008, 12:47 am@Cool_Knights

haha spending hard earn money ma tongue.gif haha at first plan to get CPU to play crysis hehe then PC things alwiz have to upgrade wasting money..so stick back to PS3 lo...although playing original games is exp so have to think what games i love to play and whether is it worth of getting the console hehe dont 1 2 regret in long term just like my psp collecting dust with untouch (rarely) UMD's...

Nevertheless, i have 70% what i what already..now is choosing which game and which shop to get hehe. Hope "they" shop onwers" have all the Y-connector...HDMI-->DVI cables to purchase at their shop too so hassle free no need to travel from 1 destination to another..smile.gif
