I'd like to know if I can set my PS3 to 1080p without an HDMI cable...

If so, let me know how to do it please...

PS: My PS3's running with its original cable. (AV Cable)

You can play a PS3 with it's original cord just fine but you may not get near the detail that you would get if you have an HDMI converter cord. Trust me, been there, done that. Metal Gear Solid 4 looked okay with original cord but was phenomenal when I plugged both the TV and PS3 together with the HDMI cord. It's worth the money to go out and buy one. Plus it's just one cord instead of many plugs, in the end it's a simpler hookup if you have to move.

No, the only way to see 1080p is with the HDMI cable. If you don't have a HDMI port on your TV and you want it to look better, then try buying the cable that has a red, green, and blue for the video and the red and white for the audio. But you still need to have the ports for that on your TV. Good luck.
