Monitor Help Needed
« on: November 30, 2004, 08:15:00 AM »

Firstly I hope this is in the correct forum!

I'm looking at buying a monitor at the moment to replace my old 17" CRT.

The problem is I want some thing for my room that won't take up much room, will look nice beside my shuttle and ideally that I could also plug my XBOX into.

What I have found is this Relisys 17" Widescreen, now I'm wondering if anyone would know if this is a good monitor and what would the picture quality be like for my PC?

If not i was thinking of a 19" LCD Normal aspect.
Should i just get an X2VGA and plug that into the monitor? I have a PAL XBOX and have been trying to find out if the X2VGA will display anything. I'd be even happy if it would display in normal TV modes but if there is a way to get it to display the HD modes that would be great too, do i just have to buy NTSC games and play them on my PAL xbox (chipped) or is it the PAL xbox itself that has the restrictions?

All help welcome.
