Im confused
Which yields better graphics...
a. Xbox connected to a full HD via component cables (RGB) or...
b. Xbox connected to a monitor via VGA a cable?
Can the component cable support full 1080P?
Yup..component can support 1080p..depending on the spec of your lcd TV...but there is no doubt that VGA connection will produce better result for 1080p viewing..as in my case for Sharp G7..it totally diminish the red push effect at all for HD-DVD viewing through HD-DVD add on for x360....and again...pls review your lcd TV manual..if it does support 1080p connection through VGA connection too...

i have the same question too.
if say i connect the xbox to monitor using a hdmi to dvi converter, how am i gonna get sound? the sound is piped through HDMI rite?
through the optical output for 5.1 ..and bear in mind that hdmi for x360 will not carry the sound transfer ..just the graphic...and yes ..u can use the dvi converter....

THanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. I intend to setup my future xbox 360 to my 20 inch samsung 206BW (2ms response time, HDCP compatible) monitor via a HDMI to DVI cable. Are the cables available here in malaysia and will it provide good quality video?
All the new batched for x360 comes with the HDMI connection....thats include premium and elite...but I have no clue wether premium with hdmi connection is available in msia laready...by the way ..u can always use hdmi-vga converter for connection to your monitor...

haha long time no hear from u! Yea my question is for everyone, and that includes u too!
So to save ppl from clicking back to previous page let me repost my q again.
1. Are DVI to HDMI cables available here in malaysia?
2.The previous poster brought up another issue that I want to know as well. Which kind of audio cable will it require? I need audio to come from my regular headphone, so is the adaptor for a standard earphone plug available as well? The same kind that the ipod has.
1)Why DVI-HDMI..as there isnt any DVI connection for x360????Myabe u should rephrase it as HDMI-DVI....
2) For headphone connection.....u can always purchase the turtle beach earforce x3....in fact i'm using either 1 of triton AX360 and turtle beach x3for headphone audio for x360.....
