Will ViewSonic VA2213W Monitor Work with PS3?

Yes, with the right cable.

Monitor Specs (VA2213W)

• Inputs: VGA (D-Sub 15-pin) + DVI-D (no HDMI).
• Resolution: 1680×1050 (16:10) @ 60 Hz.
• HDCP: Not supported on DVI (older model).

PS3 Video Output

• HDMI (digital, HDCP)
• AV Multi (component / composite / SCART)

Connection Options

1. HDMI → DVI-D cable (or adapter): Video works. Audio: PS3 → Optical/AV Multi → speakers/headset (separate). HDCP: May block Blu-ray/Netflix/protected content—games usually fine.
2. Component (YPbPr) → VGA transcoder (active, powered): ~$20–30. Converts analog component to VGA. No HDCP issue. Audio separate.
3. Composite (yellow) → VGA: Poor quality (480i → upscale), not recommended.

Recommendation

Use HDMI→DVI cable + optical audio to speakers. If protected video fails, switch to component→VGA transcoder. Monitor lacks speakers—plan audio separately.
