How to Get the Most out of PS3 Graphics

The PlayStation 3 represents the pinnacle of video gaming graphics in the current gaming generation. Its hardware combines realistic graphics with smooth game play that was impossible only a few years ago. While the capabilities of this system are impressive, you'll need to ensure that your entertainment center is set up to take advantage of them. You'll need a quality high-definition television as well as an HDMI cable to get the most of your PS3's graphics.

Instructions

- 1
  Check your current entertainment set up. Check if your television is high-definition, and if it is what resolution it supports. Check which type of cable you are using as well. If you have a full HDTV and an HDMI cable, you are already enjoying the fullest experience of PlayStation graphics; if not, continue on.
- 2
  Upgrade your television to a 1080p high-definition television. Try to find a set with at least a 120Hz refresh rate to enjoy the smoothest picture. The size and technology; whether plasma, LCD or LED, is entirely up to you.
- 3
  Purchase a High-Definition Multimedia Interface cable to connect your PS3 to your HDTV. This cable can support the full quality of the PS3 graphics and will not dumb down the image quality.
- 4
  Install your new television, and connect your PS3. Insert a game and enjoy the full graphical experience that the PS3 has to offer.
