I am in Europe and I have PAL ps2
I was using untill now the composite A/V way via the cable that came with my PS2 console,

Looking at the back of my parents TV I saw it had RGB entry.

What kind of cable do I need to use it? Do I need component cable or what? and is the picture better this way than composite? I don't have S-Video entry.

Thanks

p.s. whats the price of an RGB scart?

RGB (Component) inputs would give you the best quality, but the cables to connect to it from the PS2 can run 30 USD and up... :p

1 - Composite (Separate RGB cables)
2 - SVideo (basically composite wires of smaller guage, all contained in one cable)
3 - RCA (coax without sound distortion)
4 - Coax (sux)

I bought RGB scart, goldplated Blaze $32 (regular online price is $20 but I am in remote country so...)

OMG, what a difference,
the noise that was present before now is gone, the picture is much more crisp, calm, and sharp. Definately worth it. :> I busted my ass playing Tekken 4 today
