What is better for HD gaming Component cables or an HDMI cable?
Component Cables should be used only when an HDMI connection is not available. You made the question harder to answer by making your component cables higher quality sounding than you did the HDMI. Good cables are felt to be important and there are poor quality HDMI cable that cost more to ship than to purchase. There are even 3D quality HDMI cables now being sold. Actually most gaming will not require the technology that is required in a Blu Ray 3D disc connected to a top of the line 3D HDTV to watch a movie on your PlayStation 3
Connecting PS3 with HD AV cables?
If you have purchased the correct cable you just plug it into the back of the PlayStation and into you TV HD Av inputs. My Sony TV has an HDMI and I just purchased a 6 foot HDMI cable to hook up the PlayStation 3 Slim to the TV, but since it also has other HD inputs I could have used them and still plugged the HDMI side into the back of the PS3. The PS3 does not come with HDTV connection cables, they are an optional item that you must purchase yourself. Target.com sells them as do many other stores and online sellers. The first thing you must determine is what kind of setup the TV has before you purchase cables. If it is like mine and has more than one kind go with the HDMI as first choice. Until you purchase the cable the one that is provided will still allow you to use the PS3
Do you have to have an HDMI wire for a ps3 if you switched it from the red white and yellow cord?

If you do not use the A/V cable the came with the PS3 there are optional S video Cables and also Optional Component Cables that can be used for HDTVs besides using a HDMI cable
If a sony blu ray player is set up at 1080p and is set up to a HDTV at 1080i will it play a blu ray disc with high definition sound and picture?
I have a sony bluray player conected to my tv by a hdmi cable only it wont work can anyone help me --------------- Go into the menu and set the output resolution to either 720p or 1080i and it should work on any HDTV that's not 1080p. If it doesnt, don't use an HDMI cable - use Red/Green/Blue (Component Video) cables to hook up to the TV. It will work fine at 720p. You will also need to connect additional red and white cables for sound.
Why cant i play my PS3 with my AV cables anymore i used to be able to but after i used a HDMI cable the AV cable isn't working i know neither the PS3 cable or TV are broken?
You have to go to your settings and correct them. You no longer will have HD capability with the A/V cables that came with the PS3. You really have no reason to use the A/V cable with a HDTV. The A/V cable will only give 480i or standard TV. Decent HDMI cables can be found at a reasonable or sale price and if thy don't work perfect just return and exchange them

Are there any differences in quality from HDMI cables 120Hz and 60Hz?
There is no such thing as '120Hz' HDMI cables. Marketing hype has cables promoted for many things that make no difference in the picture or compatibility. The only features that require special cables are 3D and Ethernet over HDMI, both of which can be had with HDMI 1.4 spec cables. The signal sent to the television is going to be 24 or 60 frames per second (24Hz or 60Hz). It is the TV that creates the 120Hz or 240Hz refresh rate to create smoother motion.

No, the HDMI jack on the laptop is output only. You may use it to project your laptop screen on other devices such as monitors and TVs.

I guess you can buy a cheep monitor an then use the HDMI port to hook up the xbox... or buy a TV. No. Laptops cannot be linked to.
Does one HDMI cable from your tv to your cable set top box handle both the video and the audio or do you still need two separate cables like you would using component cables?
