    Exclamation Ps3 to PC

    Hi everyone, after building my computer, i have encountered an obstacle. I did not think about this befor i made my computer, but now i am willing to connect my ps3 to my pc and monitor (monitor only supports VGA). So just to make sure, i was wondering if this product (a YPbPr to RGBHV VGA BOX
    ) will work with my monitor.

    Monitor:http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/185-D...d-m-10001-VESA

    Box/adapter: http://www.consolesandgadgets.com/ca...ox-p-2418.html

    Cheers
    Valvo.

    For that sort of price for an adaptor you may as well buy a decent monitor with an HDMI connection. I bought a dell 24" widescreen with HDMI for my ps3 about a month ago for £155.

    ok, but number 1, the monitor wont have speakers meaning i will have to connect it to my pc anyway. And 155 - 55 is 100... so you wont buy a decent monitor for 50 £. Thanks anyway.

    Re: Ps3 to PC

    You won't have to use the pc to get sound from the ps3, just unplug your speakers from the pc and hook up your ps3 directly to them? Not sure if its in the box but I used a phono to 3.5 jack to do exactly that. What speakers have you got?

    This cable: http://www.consolesandgadgets.com/ca...le-p-1004.html
    This adapater: http://www.tvcables.co.uk/cgi-bin/tvcables/AD012.html

    Yes that box should work, just set it to 720, you will have borders though. Flewis was saying that 54.99 + 86.83 = £140 thus the average price of a bargain 24" monitor.
