Hello

I've recently bought a Gateway FPD2485W monitor and I have a problem.
First of all I have it connected with my PS3 via DVI-HDMI cable. According to this review:
http://www.anandtech.com/displays/showdoc.aspx?i=2935 the FPD2485 supports 1080p but whenever I set the output signal to 1080p on the PS3 the screen goes blank and I have to wait 30sec for settings to default. Is this monitor really capable of outputting a 1080p format ?

Basiclly that leaves me with 1080i. The problem I see is that the picture is not as crisp and sharp as it should be - it's a bit fuzzy/blurry and it flickers at the bottom. I even went down to a nearby mall to check out one of the stands with PS3s hooked up to 30-32" HD Ready TVs. There was a demo of Motorstorm running and it looked so much better than it does on my monitor. I tried to connect the PS3 via component cable but the picture quality was even worse - more blurry. It's really frustrating cause I did buy this monitor with the PS3 in mind.

Any help would be much appreciated.
