Hi there,
I picked up a 360 premium pack about a month ago and have just been playing it on my sdtv.I was planning on picking up a HDTV to fully maximise the graphics,but i was browsing the web there and got the impression that it was possible to play your 360 on a lcd computer monitor in hd....i got my pc around a year ago from dell,it has a 19inch lcd monitor,dont know the exact specifics,can anyone tell me wat do i need to set my 360 up in hd on my computer monitor???
Thanks
Regards
Yes, depending on the type of monitor you have. And you will likely be able to play games in high definition too. The Xbox 360 supports the following resolutions when using the VGA AV connector: 640×480, 848×480, 1024×768, 1280×720, 1280×768, 1280×1024, 1360×768, and 1920×1080. In order to use your monitor you will most likely need to purchase the Xbox 360 VGA HD Cable and connect it to your monitor?s VGA port. If you don?t have a free VGA port on your monitor, you will either need to switch back and forth or purchase a VGA switcher.
Support for 1920×1080 was added during the Fall Dashboard Update in October 2006. There are many reports of some incompatibilities with various nominally 1080p displays including the Dell 2405.
