Good Monitor For 360?
« on: June 02, 2007, 03:16:00 AM »
Alright I am upgrading from a 15 inch monitor. And one of my friends is letting me use his Dell 2007wfp till I can get a replacement for the 15 inch he broke. I am really enjoying the color depth and blacks it shows. I was just wondering if any one had it out there or had thoughts on it. One of the big +'s for me is the composite,Vga,Dvi and s-video inputs. I have hooked my wii up to it and it looks good after i turn the brightness all the way down.

So is this a good buy for a monitor to use with a 360? Thoughts welcomed.

I have the model that came before the 2007wfp, the 2005fpw. The 360 looks very, very good on it through VGA at 1280*768. I have read in some threads that the 2005 gives better VGA performance than the 2007. You can still pick up the 2005 on ebay for around $250. I highly recommend it!!

I'll look into those 2005fpw's seems like you can pick one up on ebay for a good deal.

Any more ideas would be welcomed. Also If some one has owned both the 2007 and the 2005fpw monitors from dell could you give some feedback on the picture quality of the 360 on it.
