TV and Gaming on Monitor?




Mike R


I have a HD HP Monitor that I hook up to my Mac laptop. I want to be able to watch TV and play PS2 on this monitor.
Is that possible?
What do I need to purchase to be able to watch TV or play PS2 on the monitor?

Thanks



Answer
for ps2: try buying a vga or dvi port to component video cable

for tv: i think you need a tv tuner to your mac then connect it to your monitor

Gaming monitor or tv?







I am building my PC and Should I spend money on a 19" monitor or is a tv good enough? (my tv uses HDMI sockets and it is a 32" toshiba LCD)


Answer
Well most tvs are not made for gaming. So they have much higher response times, so you will get a lag in between what is actually happening and what you see.
So you want to sue a tv or monitor with less the a 5ms response time (the lower the better, as 1ms can be difference between living and dying).
So maybe do some research on your tv, find out the response time on it.

Also if you are using a tv, you should make sure its capable of 1080P (1920x1080) resolutions.
