Dell 2005fpw And My 360
« on: January 29, 2006, 02:08:00 PM »

I have the 2005fpw with the MS vga cables, at the highest setting. Although it's 16:9 you can make it so that the monitor stretches it to 16:10 which isn't that huge of a stretch.

DOn't bother with the VGA cable, your colours will be washed out and muted (check the thread on this) I tried it on a friends monitor before hand and decided to go with the 2405fpw for the component inputs because of this

I found that on my friends new gateway 21 inch. When we hooked it up with my vga adapter and with the component cables there was no bigg difference in quality. I was expecting it to look as good as it does on his hd tv and it wasnt nearly as crisp.
