this is a cheaper tn that will do you fine(affiliate link, hope you don't mind): http://amzn.to/1sJXSc9
it is 144 hz so you could game and 3d vision but the ps3 is nice. http://amzn.to/1tP9NqW This costs more, but is an IPS, better off angle viewing, better color accuracy and reproduction, overall better experience. Hope it helps. I would think that hdmi is your best bet but dual link dvi is ok. hdmi gives you sound but you dont have speakers so not an issue.
