Elhabib, he said it was Thorgod set up, not his personal set up (the second one). And even more complicated lol, bik3rluke is kryptix too. You know, same person, Well that's what I understood, but gah I'm still zombified so... Anyway, why am I posting btw. Should be on a break.
I'm currently on a 22" LG 1080i job which doubles as my computer monitor. However, I've got one eye on a new 24" 1080p monitor, and the other on my bank balance...
Err, like Kanar said, he didn't claim either setups as his own, and besides, what's wrong with some d1ckwaving here, it is a racing game forum, isn't it? ;)
LOL, silly me, forgot to add that I'm playing on a Panasonic Viera TX-37PZ (I think it was), 1080p of course...
um... cos willywaving is pointless and boring?
Agreed, but it wasn't out of place among all the other minor wobbling willies (pardon the visually disturbing wording :rolleyes:) which were left unremarked upon... that was my point.
I'm just saying it isn't the worst case of e-peen stroking I've seen by a long shot, so let's not crucify anyone for it. :)
Haha, yes.
You need to make sure though that your computer monitor supports HDCP (A quick Google search for the model number will give you the exact specifications of your monitor), and if it does, you can use an HDMI to DVI cable to plug the PS3 in the monitor. Now it depends on the monitor you have, some will support only 720p correctly and will inappropriately scale 1080i/p (Often times cutting off a part of the picture), while others will support all resolutions the PS3 can output. I'm using a ViewSonic VX2035wm in this way with an HDMI to DVI cable, and it supports 1080p perfectly so I can play on it with no problem.
For sound, even though my monitor has integrated speakers, I have a Samsung HT-X40 bought cheaply at BestBuy (Compared to other 5.1 systems, and no the price on CNet is far higher than what was paid for it, at least four times too high) and it's served me well... I have the desktop computer on it too, though it only has 2.1 in the case of the computer (5.1 through Digital Optical for PS3)
I play wipeout hd on an etch-a-sketch and i make all the sound effects with my mouth, except for quakes... I lean back into my chair and cut a thunderous blast to elevate the realisim. Hardcore gaming.
Let the willy-waving commence! :lol Here's my new setup: A Panasonic Viera TC-P50G10 plasma (also doubles as my computer monitor) coupled with Energy Take Classic 5.1 surround speakers through a Yamaha RX-V465BL 5.1 receiver
