Yes, it's a good deal.
So how's the lcd performing with PS3? Mind to do a little bit review here?

I can't really say how great it looks but I can say for sure it looks great! *duh*

So far, I've only been playing from a 25" and 29" CRT TV to a 32" LCD TV and now to this 22" LCD monitor, I can say, I'm lovin' it!
Not much difference from the 32" LCD TV in terms of graphics but since the 22" is slightly smaller, graphics are crisp and clear. I don't really have another 22" to compare this with so can't say for sure.

From what I see...
- No Ghosting (racing games, fighting games)
- Details in those dark areas I usually see on my normal TV are clearer now
- runs 1080p just fine
- 1.3Megapixel webcam seems fine
- downscales absolutely fantastic (playing PC games at 1024x768 still looks great)
- sound from LCD monitor a bit soft (I stay by a main road so it's pretty noisy)

Prolly due to my old 6800GT (AGP card)
- some 'noise' when watching AVI tv series or some DVD movies
- some 'weird funny lines' and abnormalities when playing NeverwinterNights 2 at 1680x1050

the Ugly Truth
- jaggies when watching some DVDs is a kind of put off
- no expert in tuning colors on PC so I ter-tuned it a bit red-ish

It's plug into both my PC and PS3 so one button to switch between DVI to HDMI to VGA connection.

Oh, so this is the monitor. Wow, nice buy la bro. Congrats!

hmm... I haven't tried Blu Ray movies yet on a 22" screen... but I can tell that the normal DVD quality totally sucks on a 22" screen. the jaggies are killing me!!!

Hi all,

I just bought Dell 2408WFP LCD monitor. I can directly connect PS2 video output to the LCD. But for audio, I would like to know how many options are available to get sound from PS2? I know one way is to get RCA Y to 3.5mm and plug into sound card line-in.

Hope to hear more suggestions here.

Thanks.

if got money, get a 5.1 home system that comes with optical
tried out using optical at my KL home's and the sound is fantastic!

Thanks for your reply. How much would this cost? Over 1k?

I got my Sony HTS that came with a Sony DVD Player for about RM1k+ a few years ago.
I'm not much of an audiophile so I can't really provide good advice on getting a system.
Try checking if those Hi-Fi or sound system comes with Optical input or not?

I see. I'll check out from other thread. Thanks again azxel

speaking of which... tonight I will try and see if the webcam attached on the LCD monitor can be used on the PS3 or not... has anyone tried using their built-in webcams on the PS3 before?

Hmmm....I just dont understand, why you guys all bought LCD which are 22" or lower....

I have been playing it with last year 32" and now 37"....heheheh


I might go for 42" next year (depend on the price). I m using local brand, the quality is good. price wise.....if there is anyone using local brand, whats ur feedback?

the reason that don use LCD TV,

1. expensive in order to getting the same quality with the lcd monitor
2. response time issue, for 32" or 42" cheaper LCD TV is 8 ms responese time. which you may need to to pay more than that in order to have a good perfomance.
3. not worth to buy for budget gamer, if you are rich, i would suggest you buy the sony bravia RM15k++

Its hell alot cheaper for one and at the same time, it does alot more than a TV can do.

I'm using a BenQ FP94VW, PS3 hooked up right beside my PC, speakers all together with it. My PS3 audio goes into my PC instead of directly to my speakers, so basically I get sound from my PC. On the same time, I can just turn on my songs and play my PS3 as well. Pretty much in-game music doesn't mean anything to me then.

Theres really more, like I can just MSN and play my PS3 at the same time as well. Its doable on a TV, but the experience just isn't the same.

One more thing is space, 32" is too big for my table.

who doesn't know 32" n 42" r bigger & nicer display? money matters la....to some of us
like me, i use 22" monitor for pc n ps3, switching back n forth, not becoz it looks tech savvy, but tats onli wat i can budget for
hope later i can go for lcd tv like u do

guys any samsung brand that can be fix into PS3?

i saw this model quite nice(Samsung 2253BW)..but dunno whether it will support or not..

what the requirement needed for a LCD to play PS3?

i noob here..tq

3 people has already answered you...

Clearly, I really don't see the big deal between a 22" LCD monitor and 32" or 37" LCD TV.
In fact, I find that the 22 (definitely the 24") LCD monitor would perform better than your 32" or 37" LCD TV.

Here are some reasons why people rather use the 22" LCD monitor:
- cheaper (RM1k vs RM2k)
- better resolution (1680x1050 vs your 1368x768)
- sharper text on screen when using PC
- better refresh rates (2ms vs 8ms)
- everything (console, PC, HTS) is fitted into our small bedroom
- great multi-tasking display (using Windows on a LCD TV sucks.. for me)

If you really wanna compare quality, get a Full HD 50" HDTV and compare. That's where you get quality.

I read here a some guys are using it for thier PS3. Im using it for my Xbox360 and its working great. Using it with my pc and console both connected at the same time. So can jus switch between inputs on the fly. Cheers.
