    I'm not sure is this right topic for this but...

    I have 21.5" Full HD LCD monitor, what has ONLY VGA. I have PS3 and I would like to plug HDMI cable to my monitor, but it has only VGA.

    So the question is, is it possible to make VGA -> HDMI, so I can play PS3 through my PC monitor? Or is there something like VGA -> DVI -> HDMI or something?

    Thanks alot!

    You can't do it with just a cable, you need to convert signal formats.

    A quality signal converter would cost as much as a new monitor.

    You are downgrading from a digital (HDMI/DVI) to an analog (VGA) format so quality will suffer.
