Hello all, just wondering which cable that is cheap can hook up my ps3 to my dell 2405fpw? I need a hdmi to dvi cable if that works cause my monitor doesnt have hdmi. I was curious as to how I would also plug my speakers into my ps3 so i can hear sound. I have a pair of logitech z5300e's and want to hook these speakers in with my ps3 so i can experience surround sound. These are pc speakers but they work well with my ps2 but i use composite cables to work around that. I just dont know what my speakers would hook up to on the ps3.

Here is a link to the cables i am planning on buying. I dont rlly need more than 5 ft but i will prolly get 10ft or 15ft wire just in case.

Also will i lose alot of visual quality hooking my radeon 1900xt to my dell 2405fpw via vga? I dont feel like unplugging the dvi connections when switching from pc to ps3.

Thank you in advance.

Yes you will lose visual quality, Yes that is also the cable you would need.

which cable would i need from the list though?

What is AWG? They are different, one has 22, one has 24 and so on and so forth. What AWG would i need? Would I lose visual quality on the ps3 or just using my pc?

Is there a way I can hook up both dvi cables together on the dell and switch which one to use such as what they do with a hdmi switch?
