How to check whether my lcd monitor can support ps3?is dell lcd monitor a good model to play ps3?

just found this...its old article though....



source: The Star

i'm not sure if im keen to watch msia program in high def
but then if it start.. then there is more n more reason to get high def set..

so far high def sets are only for next gen console gaming in m'sia..
many ppl dont know about BD they are still happy with their RM5 DVD
which doesnt really utilizes,, HD
or even astro, its worse than dvd!

Check ur LCD monitor has HDCP in order for display if not certain lcd without HDCP u will not get display and need tedious work to get it 2 have display.If ur LCD has DVI theres a chance it will work even it has no HDCP.

Guys.....

I am using a hp w2408h LCD monitor, with HDMI & DVI, can do input switching... so I can switch between my PC & PS3

some more the HDMI port also support support audio, as the monitor with built in speaker, ya.. hp bunldes the HDMI cable also
price ...... around RM1800, very swee and some more with the bright view screen, very shinny. some more can rotate from lanscape to potrait

one more cool thing, it's has the ambient sensor (light sensor) on the monitor.....
five diffrent display profile to choose (movie, photo, Game, text & custom)

spec also pretty cool
some info found over the net...

is rather hard to find in the lowyat... not much of store keep stock.... i did ask them to order for me a few months ago

guys,i need some advise.

i just order a Samsung 32" LCD TV LA32R71B,just for gaming and video..

i dunno this kind of stuff much..a seller of the shop told me to buy the digital component cable..
which can get a better graphic from a normal one..which are the header is gold colour one..

the set of things which cost me rm 300++
i duno do it make any different from the normal one..

sadly my dvd player and ps 2 doesnt support HDMI..so it useless..


it need some advise..before i purchase it..

^off topic...

Off topic or not, the guy is about to waste RM300 for nothing.

@kokanchai:

Please avoid paying RM300 for component cables. Gold-plated connection heads are for avoiding corrosion. It wouldn't add any difference in image quality wise.

Just go along to Jalan Pasar electronics shops and get a component cable there for RM20 only. Do not pay more than RM30 for a component cable, simply not worth it.

Any1 knows what's the big different for gaming between sony D and V series?
I heard the staff explain to me that D double better framerates compare to V series and extra 1 HDMI port. But for gaming both series are the same. What u guys think?

can consider my Dell 27" UltraSharp for just 2k

K here is what Ive got..

1. a philips fullHD tv that has 2 HDMI inputs but 0 HDMI output
2. a philips 5.1 1080i HTS with 1 HDMI output but 0 HDMI input
3. a PS3
4. a bunch of wires

how do i connect them all and maintain 1080p video and 5.1 audio for all my bluray movies playing from the ps3? thanks for advice

You best option would be :

Video : HDMI from PS3 to TV
Audio : Optical from PS3 to HTS (if there is optical in). Remember to set the audio out as Optical in your PS3. If no optical out then got to use RCA. Only 2 channels.

i saw D series 100hz in action..
its really super smooth la compared to other series..
but that time they only demo bluray movie..

U know what.. if u go to One U new wing where they display the sony TV, they show all of them with motion flow n non motion flow whether it's on D series or V or W .. zzz.. Sometimes donno how to trust the video that they are playing.
I was told that for gaming D and V are the same. So I just wanted to confirm with this.. =(

all tipu!!!!!!

the best for bluray is 24p

hey guys, i've been doing a lot of readings here and finally i bought myself a brand new 931bw yesterday i dont have a ps3 (yet) so currently im connecting it to my laptop at the moment which works just fine. im wondering where do u guys get those hdmi->dvi cables and what's the usual price? i surveyed a few computer/game shops here and i was confused whether it's a male/female type.. i asked some of the shop keepers, they also told me about this vga box thingy which adds to my confusion.. but at the moment im sticking to this certain cable -> http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-2q-77-...en-70-1xna.html as one of u guys posted earlier.. and yes some shops differ between rm50 to even up to hundreds??
i know in order to connect to ps3 wud require me to hav hdmi->dvi cable, but how about connecting to a ps2? what type of converter/cables do i need to connect to my ps2? hope some of the sifus here cud guide me, thanks guys.
