I read through the FAQ and found out that:
The VGA box component cable got 5 cables on the other end, but mine PS3 cable only got yellow, red and white end.
This could mean that I need to give up my own PS3 cable and use the 5 to 1 component cable in VGA box?

So I only need to use the RGB PS3 cable which included in VGA BOX?(or do I need to purchase separately?) I am a monitor noob, can you please point out the pros and cons of my monitor with VGA box Samsung Syncmaster 17 inch 732n Plus Only have blue VGA female port. Please dont hesitate to state out the downgrading effect or other effect(if got) I bought my PS3 yesterday and find out my monitor not HDMI-DVI compatible with PS3(just DVI compatible with graphic card on PC). Thank you.

Thank you. i am not sure if a particular VGA box comes specifically with ps2/ps3 component cable because even though on one end there are RCA jacks (red green blue), the other end that should be connected to the ps3 must be in ps2/ps3 AV port. the only standard port for ps3 are hdmi, optical audio and usb.

Yea for PS3 ports, there is a PS3 AV port existed for this PS3 Component cable. Would it affect the screen quality if I use VGA box for my monitor? I heard that some monitor not compatible with VGA box (even some games) is that true?
