Hey guys

Getting a PS3 on release, and hoping to run it through my 205BW (HDCP so will be alright)

So going to pick up a HDMI to DVI cable, seen these around fairly common and unexpensive, question I have though, is I understand HDMI carries the audio signal as well, so how will I be able to get audio from the PS3 if I use this cable

Is there an optical out on the PS3, or is this disabled while using HDMI?

If anyone knows, can you please let me know how it would work

I have googled it but not really come across anything

Cheers
 
Sorry to revive my own thread

Just about to buy the HDMI to DVI cable, got a bit of a problem though theres so many different choices and I dont know which I am supposed to get

HDMI A/M 19P to DVI 18P +1P/M
HDMI A/M 19P to DVI 24P +5P/M

And a couple more which are just vice versas of those combinations pretty much

Anyone know what the difference is and which I need

Is the P part the number of pins? If so, how many pins are their in a monitor DVI connection?
