Hello everybody on gamespot.com,

I was wondering which cable I need to get 720p or higher with the following setting:

PS3 60gb and the samsung 206bw lcd monitor. 

specs monitor:

http://www.samsung.com/Products/Monitor/LCD_Digital/LS20MEWSFVXAA.asp?page=Specifications

The monitor has a dvi/hdcp connector. So i like to use that hdcp input. By limit for the cable is around 25 euro (about 30 dollar). BTW. I will use the ps3 for gaming, watching movies on blueraydiscs and I will soon instal linux on it. Could someone help me with this. Thank you all.

You should check on Ebay...There's pretty good deal. I got mine for 6$ on Ebay and it works as well as Monster cable which is like 50$...

But I don't know what cable I need. Do I need a HDMI --> dvi cable or are there cable that are special made for hdcp inputs?
