cheap or expensive HDMI cables doesnt make any difference to your display la!! AS LONG AS DONT BUY MORE THAN 5.METRES!! after 5metres the display will be effected abit bcoz of the transmitting problem

Works another way round.

PS3 can only upscale games to 1080p if it has proper support for it. While most new PS3 games have it, older games like Resistance, R&C: TOD, Uncharted, Genji, Heavenly Sword(I'm not sure on this one) and even some PSN games cannot be upscaled to 1080p. They're locked on 720p.

No PS3 games as of yet has native 1080p as its res.

what did u mean 'works another way round'?

my only question, if we have a ps3 with games/movies capable of 1080p, we doesnt need to worry that an AVR has the abilty to upscale or not right??

We actually do. Some games NEED to be "forced" into 1080p if you want it upscaled. DMC4 is one of those prime examples despite the fact it doesn't even support upscaled 1080p in the first place.

what i mean is.. all my movies/games support 1080p. and i still need an avr to 'force' upscale? im not talking bout those titles that doesnt support 1080p =.=

sup guys, like Im having this weird sound with my ps3. its like someone is knocking it. happens when the ps3 is turned on and a few minutes after its turned off. 

is this normal?

i personally think there is something dirty in your room (some ghost maybe)? weird sound from ps3 actually is from the ghost. the ghost is knocking it. when u turn on or turned off he/she also disturb u. plz be careful

i've got a very noob question too.

since my PS3 is a US set.. the power plug seems to be very annoying because it doesnt match our malaysia plug. i dun wanna use a multi-use adaptor. can i use the monitor power plug because i have one extra. or any good power plug which is better in quality?

my ps3 is from japan (~100v), and i use random cord taken from kettle/pc/other devices.. it works because ps3 has a universal power supply inside the unit.. that's why ps3 dont have xboxhueg power brick.

owhh.. so i can use the monitor one.. thanks so much.. does any better quality(more expensive) cord than a random one makes a diff to ps3??
