Few questions about Samsung 913N

gam3r · 21 Apr 2006 at 17:49

Just bought a Samsung SM-913N 19inch LCD(bgrade) from here and i got a few questions.

1) Does it come with a wall mount
2) Can i plug my PS2 into it

Thanks

no wall mount with it, but it is VESA certified so you can buy one seperately. You would need a TV card in the PC to plug PS2 into it, since the monitor just has a single VGA input, no component or anything

Hi Badass. Cheers for replying

So i should be looking for a VESA wallmount?
About the PS2, is there any sort of 3rd party add on like some sort of box i can use to plug my ps2 into and then into the monitor?

you'd need a VESA compatible wall mount yes. Check the panel spec to ensure you know which type but iirc it's a 10/100mm standard. Regarding the PS2, i'm not sure if you could achieve this through an xxxx (ahhh, i can;t remember the name of it - some kind of box, it will come to me and i'll come and edit this!

)

Ah damn you got it, was about to myself

And these VESA thingies...they are expensive?

Baddass · 21 Apr 2006 at 20:39

wall mount kits? well it depends what type you get. We can't talk about them here specifically as almost certainly anywhere which sold them would be classed as a competitor. They vary in design, built, looks, price, make.....lots to choose from

well that's what it is in effect, i am still struggling to remember the name!

KVM Switcher!!!

that was it!

gam3r · 21 Apr 2006 at 21:15

Wahay thank you i shall look around. Do you think its worth playing PS2 on a 19" LCD monitor over a 14"tv?

gam3r · 21 Apr 2006 at 21:29

Err mate are you sure they are KVM switchers because what im reading is that they allow you to control 2 pc's from one terminal, nothing about consoles..

Baddass · 21 Apr 2006 at 21:42

that was what i was thinking of, but wasn't sure they would be suitable. I am not sure if there is an equivalent box to allow what you are thinking of. Hopefully someone else might be able to help though

So did I,

, what time did you order yours as I think they've only usually got one stock item of "b grade" items.

you will need a vga>console converter. theres plenty around if you search, mainly for the xbox though but it will sork fine on the ps2
