Amazon has a [url=http://www.amazon.com/Wii-PS3-VGA-HDTV-Cable-Nintendo/dp/B0015MISAG]PS3 VGA cable.[/url] its $35 but it also works with the Wii.
Only problem is it won't do your monitors resolution except for 480p. If you can find a 17" CRT it would work, those tend to be able to 1280x1024 so you can do 1280x720 on them fine.
TLDR; with your current monitor it is not possible to use a resolution above 480p.
Go onto craigslist and get one of the free crts people give away, worst case is you get a 19" that will do 720p just fine for $20.
Just buy this,

To display any form of HD content off a PS3 you will need to have an HDCP compliant monitor with a 720p or above resolution. Either that or the HDFury. If you try and run the PS3 through a non HDCP compliant device you will get nothing but a black screen. No array of cables and converters will solve your issues.
well i have a moniter capable of a max of 1280x1024, but i'd prefer to keep that for my pc and use the 1024x768 one for the ps3, and 480p doesn't bother me much...

no, it'll work on a non-HDCP display just fine, but you won't be able to watch Blu-Rays at 1080p, it'll go down to 480p.
no, you're wrong
the ps3 will not output through the HDMI port unless the display is HDCP compliant, you just get a black screen on startup
My TV isn't HDCP compliant, and I can watch Blu-ray movies just fine with my PS3.

Though HDMI at 720p or above?
Because HDMI to a non HDCP compliant device running 720p or 1080p isn't going to happen by design.

I get a 1080p signal from my PS3 to my TV via HDMI. My TV was made long before HDCP compliancy came into effect.
[QUOTE=nige111;19779452]My setup's pretty nice, saves for having tons of cables running out of the PS3.

No you don't. Either you're getting a black screen over HDMI or your TV is HDCP compliant.

Disregard the fact they are talking about monitors.

This is only with certain screens evidently as I and I'm sure many others have not had this problem.
