Yes but how could i get it out from the display? the built in speakers are worthless.. is there a way too hook up external speakers? thanks
Connect the RCA plugs to an adapter like this and hook up computer speakers. It doesn't have to be 5.1 speakers.

thanks i have one of those, it came with my soundsticks, so if i use that then i wont be getting Hd because i couldnt use the hdmi.. well i guess ill have to live with it. thanks again. sony should have made a 3.5mm audio jack output for headphones
No, you use both the HDMI cable and the RCA cable. You can output sound and video from two different cables. This is the way I use my PS3 with my monitor and speakers.
ohhh awesome i thought i could only use one kind of cable, so ho many video outputs does the ps3 have?
edit: oh never mind im stupid lol, i forgot it had a regular hdmi port and also a video proprietary out port lol thanks!

just be sure to go into the audio settings and set audio out through the rca cables.
