BTW, I'm reading reviews that say the VA1912W has some bleeding light issues.....do you have the same problems?

Is 4ms - 8ms that much different? I dunno, I read many opinions that say you won't see much difference between 4ms and 8ms, unless you have a super-sensitive eye.

Just bought the XBOx360 from DjiNn, at the same time also purchased Viewsonic widescreen 19" LCD VA1912W the other computer shop.  Since the VGA cable was out of stock according to DjiNn, I have to use my compoent-to-VGA transcoder VD-Z3 to connect my XBOX 360 to my new LCD.  THe resoluation was set at 720p. 

The result is totally unsatisfactory, the color was dull and the graphic was not sharp at all. mad.gif  Then I decided to use the same configuration but connect my xbox360 to 17" CRT monitor and the result was excellent, just like the display quality direct from PC source.
TO confirm my LCD display quality, I plugged my LCD to PC and playing PC games, I also get the excellent result.

From above experiment, I guess the culprit should be VD-Z3 as it is not optimized for LCD display purpose.  I plan on buying VGA cable and hope that I will get the PC equivalent display quality.  Is it possible?

I also found the feedback from the net about the inferior 3rd party VGA cable will produce foggy effect graphic quality, anybody experience that?

yeah. mk84 also complaint "ghosting" effect on the third party VGA cable. is best that you find a direct cable that from xbox 360 to pc. comparing using vdigi progressive scan vga box.

it works well on my xbox. but.. not 360.. laugh.gif
