well this is ridiculously stupid

i just realized the monitor has only one vga port (duh) so i'm thinkin...is there a hub where you can plug in the xbox and the pc and switch them? (pretty handy if the xbox is plugged into my office pc and i can just switch back when the boss comes in

)

grouchy_smurf: There is.....dude if your looking into a LCD then most of it has dual inputs 1 for the typical VGA cables the other DVI input. If both inputs are VGA then just buy a converter and use both available ports. Would save a pretty penny on that. Plus switching is just a touch of a button on the LCD Monitor.

Well, budget dictates your choice. So you better let us know your budget first.

For those budget conscious ppl, best bang for buck is still a 22" which doubles as a PC monitor.

lknow any particular model with fast mode switching (eg. vga and dvi switching) with good response time?

Samsung 226BW seems to be a good choice if you're talking about vga/dvi switching. 2ms response time and 3000:1 dynamic contrast.

I am using 225BW but i assume 226BW has a dedicated switch button as well.

and it cost slightly above RM900 with 3 years warranty. It is a shame it doesn't have HDMI. then again, with hdmi, the cost will spiral up more

hdmi is just fancy for cutting down the # of cables and... i guess nothing much really. it's pin to pin compatible with DVI that's gonna be cool if i need to use hdmi with the samsung

thanks for the recommendation. grabbed one from newegg

I'm looking for a FULL HD 24-26" LCD Monitor. Budget around RM1500-RM2000.

FULL HD is a must as I'm using it as a monitor not some Theatre TV.

Can someone give us some option, like Samsung, BenQ & Dell. Can't find much info and price in Lowyat. Would be highly appreciated as I'm holding my PS3 purchase because I can't find the right monitor for it.

Benq G2400W or V2400W.. you can find these two in M'sia.. I bought my G2400W in Sg for around RM1690..

just check out this thread and look at the feedbacks.. http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1237718 , they convinced me to buy it.. I was originally wanted Dell Ultrasharp W2408WFP but ended up with that. Stay away from Samsung 2493HM it has a major problem with scaling issues.

from my opinion, from my eyes and how I feel, Benq G2400W on PS3 is one of the best out there. I run my xbox360 thru vga.. but.. I will get another xbox360 with hdmi port soon.

I can't judge the V2400W I never seen it in display, perhaps you should ask the people here http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1315565 (V2400W In-Depth Review)
