My games arent looking as good as i thought they would be

So i ordered an Asus 23 inch 1080p monitor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236059

Its really good with my gaming computer. Graphics look crisp and wut not. So i decided hey, i should totally hook up my ps3 to this. So i decided to go out and buy an HDMI cord. Well first thing i noticed was that the text and stuff looked pretty bad for hd. Then i decided to pop in one of the best graphical games (KZ2) and same thing. The lettering in game looked pretty bad (non HD) and nothing looked spectacular. I actually think that things looked way better with component cables on my samsung 720p and an lg 1080p i use sometimes (both of those on component cables). Whats the deal.. Thought HDMI was full HD along with 1080p..

idk if thats sarcasm or not. But i messed with the settings on the monitor alot and nothing really help. Textures looked kinda bad. I tried the MGS4 demo. Ik it was very crisp and full of light on this 1080p 40" LG tv using component . On my monitor with hdmi it was all blurry. Looked like it was slightly better than 480p and worse than 720p.

BTW, I actually have the exact same monitor. Does the XMB display in 1080p? If not, your PS3 display settings must be terribly off.

How do i check this? I mean when i plugged in the mdi cord it had 480p 720p 1080i and 1080p checked. All of them.

on the dashboard or xmb it said under information 1080p. when i put in RSV2 it went to 720p. still looked pretty bad..

What are your settings at? On the monitor and xmb. How far away is your monitor. you said you have the same one as me right?

Sounds to me like you may have your PS3's display settings slightly off. Go into those settings via the XMB and make sure they are how they should be for a 1080p output.

If you do already have them correct then I'm not entirely sure.

Wait there is a MGS4 demo?? O.okweeni

i hate it when the text looks terrible.ndawgdrake

monitors are made to be viewed at acloser range then ur TV is. console games are generally made in the same format

Ive tried that, but no beeps or anything works.

Bump, sorry. Still no luck. Need help
