Yeah, good luck getting line-in from the console and using the mic at the same time with a combined line-in/mic jack... >_> there's a reason high-end sound cards still have them on separate jacks.

The motherboard I have is the EVGA 780i which has separate microphone and line-in jacks. I received the PS3 VGA cable and it works on the monitor I have, just haven't been able to get audio from my comp yet. The comp recognized that the line-in was connected and it was receiving audio, just not sending it to the speakers so I'll need to do some more research on it.

Actually, my sound card has a combined line-in/microphone jack, but it is labeled as such.  However, if I buy another sound card, I'll look for one that has separate jacks, because something failed in my current card so it outputs +4V when in line-in mode and +5V when in microphone mode. I had to insert two capacitors in series with the inputs so I don't break my audio equipment.

The thing I love about my Mac is the combined microphone/line in/optical in port.

As you can see from the image below, the cable runs audio by analog stereo in which I do not have any speakers using these ports. The speakers I have for my computer is connected via USB, and I am also using the onboard sound card for the microphone. My question is, what method of connection would you recommend me use to get sound (possibly without having to purchase anything / not too pricey if needed)?
