    Ok. I know the basics. More pixel = better.

    I know ps3 works pretty well with high def tv's.

    I was wondering if I could get a moniter and have it work just as well as with an hdtv since moniters can get pretty much the same resolution. (At least as far as i understand it).

    So could I get the same gaming experience from a computer moniter as I would an hdtv?

    Most certainly. Try for either 1920x1080 or 1280x720.

    Theoretically you can, but I dont think there is a PS3 VGA cable out there like the 360 has so you have to get a monitor which has a HDMI or DVI which supports HDCP.

    Not possible...look for a 24" 1920x1200 LCD with HDMI/DVI/Composite inputs.

    Take my BenQ FP241W for example :cool:
