Hey guys, so I recently had to sell my 23" gaming monitor that I used with my PS3 to afford a new computer. I can no longer play the PS3 (without having it in the living room across the house), so I'm looking for an alternative. I have heard of many people playing their game consoles through their computer/laptop displays, and I want to know how to do it. I know some PCs have HDMI INPUTS, and that would work, but they're quite rare and I don't have that luxury. I have heard things like Dazzle capture cards would work, but I'm not sure.
Any ideas gdgt community?

Making it kind of useless.
Save for a monitor / TV.
