I have an old Playstation 2 that I'm looking to connect to my monitor. I've poked around a little bit and figured out that their are basically two ways of going about this, the first being to connect directly to the monitor using a "vga box" like this one (which seems to offer about the best video quality I could find for a decent price):
The other way I know of is to connect through the PC using a TV tuner card, but I've heard that the problem there is lag. I don't know if that's just a natural side of effect of using a TV tuner or if it can be overcome with a fast enough computer, but just in case, I'm running an AMD X2 3800+ with 2GB of memory and a GeForce 8800GT 512MB.
So, my question is, which method is preferable (and if you recommend the tuner, any particular do's and don'ts with regard to brand?)
