Hello I have a problem. I want to be able to hook up my ps3 to my pc monitor. The monitor doesnt have an HDMI. I understand that I need to get and adapter and ik how to do it but the other problem that I have is my monitor has no speakers and my speakers are kinda weird and dont have a 3.5 hook up and my ps3 doesnt have a hook up either. Can anyone help me out? Thanks in advance.

HDMI and dvi use the same signal format, and the same number of pins to transmit video, so a simple cable can convert a HDMI device into a dvi device.
The audio gets more tricky as you need a box to interpret the digital signal and output the analog signal, and that would be the most expensive part
To get it set up do this:
PS3 HDMI cord plugs in the input of this

Plug the HDMI side of this into the HDMI out, and the dvi end to the monitor

And then plug headphones or speakers into the audio box
