| 833531 | 2009-11-25 10:58:00 | Say if i get one of those Tv tuner cards and put it on my desktop, would i be able to use 1 screen to play PS3 and the other just as a normal computer? would there be huge stress on the PC? What would i need to accomplish this? i Got a 8600GTS XXX edition, and 2gb of DDR3 ram, is that enough? | chuanwai (12518) | ||
| 833532 | 2009-11-25 11:03:00 | How are you going to connect the PS3?? Through the tuner?? You may have to switch between the 2 if you did. It'd be better if you used HDMI if the monitor has it. But you wouldnt be using both at the same time | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 833533 | 2009-11-25 11:10:00 | Even if i have 2 monitors i cant use one to play ps3 and 1 to compute? Why is that though? So i would have to either do one or the other? | chuanwai (12518) | ||
| 833534 | 2009-11-25 11:19:00 | Well if the other monitor has HDMI sure. What other connections does the PS3 have?? I take it this tuner you have, or youre getting has video in on it (that can connect to the PS3)?? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 833535 | 2009-11-25 11:53:00 | Don't bother trying to connect a game console to a tv tuner card in a pc. I've tried it before and it works but there is quite a bit of lag from when you press a button on the controller to when you see it happen on screen. |

I had a Leadtek analogue tuner hooked to an original Xbox console. It worked fine. As soon as the parts arrive, I'm going to try my LCD monitor on a broken Xbox 360 |
