gaming for this monitor: Is this a good monitor for my ps3?

Yes it should work (HDMI cable is the way to go). Also, your wireless router should work fine with your PS3 provided that there aren't too many obstacles such as EMI, RFI and building materials, and that the distance isn't too great.

I think it's geared for that, 2ms and 1080p. I've been playing Bioshock Infinite since I woke up around 7am (now 9pm). Looks great. :)

Read my review about this monitor for PC & console gaming.http://www.amazon.com/review/R3X6P1G2C28FH/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B004G8QO8OBasically I would avoid this monitor for gaming and instead get a monitor that let's you edit the image color saturation, includes speakers with a headphone jack to avoid buying RCA audio adapters for console gaming, a matte anti-glare screen to prevent light reflections appearing on the screen, and has a 5ms or less response time for less ghosting (or image trailing) effect.This monitor has none of the things I listed and for the price that this monitor costs you're better off buying something else that's cheaper.

I don't thing it will work for gaming it's only 60 Hz refresh rate. It say 120 effective but you need at least 120 refresh for no lag. I bought it for my camper just to watch movies.

I've only ever played EA sports football and basketball games on ps3 on it. It drops back down to 720 even with the hdmi cable. The sound is amazing, the picture is better than most, but I won't tell you it's the best I've seen. 8 out of 10.

Well i've only noticed that computer monitors don't handle the res well but other than that if you hook it up to a tv it... should be fine. PS1 games are handled even worse though because the res is alot worse and alot of crap go's wrong like the screen go's black and blinks between loading screens like it isn't supported or something. and my monitors can't even read the input single. but laggy? nah... just resolution isn't supported that's all :p

I would say it's decent for gaming. I have loaded Star Wars:Empire at War and C&C; Generals loaded on mine and thet play perfectly. Display runs at 1920x1080 without any problems. My only complaints is that the fan will run at full speed when playing and sounds like a jet engine

I have used it for gaming a little bit (mainly playing Elder Scrolls IV) and have had no issues. Compared to a TN panel this IPS monitor looks very nice.

Yes and no. This monitor does not have built in speakers, so you would be able to see but would not be able to hear. There's adapters that allow you to plug your PS3/PS4 up with separate speakers. If you feel like it's worth it, give that a search. In short, I recommend finding another monitor that has built in speakers.

As long as the PS3 has either a VGA & DVI port, then yes. The display doesn't have an HDMI connection.

the monitor is great for gaming, I don't have ghosting or tearing. Pixel speed is fine.You need decent video cards to use it although. 3840x2160 is tough with 16xAF, 4xMSAA, occlusion, parallax and all the other visual candy. Also you need a video card that can specifically talk to the monitor with supporting drivers, both aspects. display port 1.2 is the only connection that will give you 60fps, dvi and hdmi can't push it at 60, only 30.To get decent frames over 60+ I use 2 Titanz sli.

Based on the fact PC Gamer declared this the best monitor for gaming available on the market right now I don't think the "don't use this for gaming" is good advice. Your ghosting of window's frames is probably due to visual settings in windows as this monitor has a 5ms response time which is pretty much as fast as the human eye can detect. Edit, 28 Feb: Got mine in today and I'm blown away, finally putting the extra horsepower in my gaming rig to some use bumping my games from 1080p to 1440p and it looks amazing, really gave me the "wow" factor normally associated with a major hardware upgrade. No ghosting in Battlefield 4, between color and resolution I felt like I could pic out every little detail and guys moving around from really far away with ease.

This monitor is great for gaming! Battlefield 3, Skyrim , Borderlands 2 - all look great without any noticeable flaws. I havn't had it long enough to have played anything else yet..Like Jack stated have some serious gpu muscle if you want to run high levels of detail.I have an i7-2600k at 4.5 Ghz and two GTX670's. Fluid, flawless gameplay.One great thing about this monitor is you can set different display sizes to suit older games - i.e. 4:3, etc.High res digital pictures are jaw dropping! awesome monitor - even at its high price.

I use it for my 50 inch seiki and its works really good for up-scaling the PS3, its noticeably better when I use the U-vision cable. For instance GTA5 is 720p but with that cable its gets marked up to 1080p. Also works great for streaming stuff on the PS3. With my Directv box it doesn't do anything, its still 1080i. For my laptop it works wonders because my laptop is 1600X900 display that cable will mark it up and actually allow you to run at 2160P so when you stream youtube 4k ect it is 4k! And 4k gaming is pretty insane looking and didn't notice any lag at 30hz.

It is capable of playing a PlayStation 2 on a PC monitor. I'm doing it myself.
