My understanding of HDMI is pretty limited so if someone could clarify it would be helpful. I thought that HDMI includes both the video and audio signal. However I keep seeing comments about people using an HDMI to DVI adapter to get their PS3 to work with the DVI inputs on their monitors. If...

That's nice to hear. I think I'll be taking Gateway back tomorrow, I'm now trying to decide between the Dell and BenQ. I'm really interested in hearing your feedback once you've hooked up some other video sources.

Doh!

I've also seen some movies in 1.85:1. Which is in between the 'hollywood' (23.5:1) and 16:9 (1.78:1)

Yes, I believe it is called anamorphic widescreen.

Can't you just get an HDMI to DVI converter?

So does the Dell have the inverse ghosting problems that the Gateway has?

I recently bought a Gateway FPD2485W 24" monitor. I previously was running the Gateway 21" monitor and was very happy with it so when I upgraded to the 24" model I really didn't do a whole lot of research. Overall the monitor is good with the exception of the inverse ghosting issue. I am now...

What's wrong with the scaler on the Dell? I'm still toying with the idea of return the Gateway and getting the Dell if it would get rid of the inverse ghosting. I played around with the monitor some more last night and the inverse ghosting started to drive me nuts. Mostly I'll be running...

Well I'm now on my 4th monitor. So far so good. This is a Jan 07, OSD 5.0 release and now my 360 works properly running on VGA 1920x1080, yay!. Color balance on this monitor is waaaay better than on the Feb 07s that I had. Out of the box they were both way too bright. Still have the...

Well it's done it on two Feb 07's so far. I'll be returning this one tomorrow and if I don't get positive results I may just do a straight return and then pick a different monitor altogether.

I currently have the Gateway FPD2485W but as you can see in this thread, it has some issues. So I'm looking at returning it and getting the 2407. I want the monitor to work well with the 360 which it sounds like it does with the A04 release. I would be using the VGA output at 1920x1080 and...

I'm looking at this board for a new machine I'm building. Anyone have any problems with it? It's predecessor (the 965) got really good reviews on Tom's Hardware but Fry's has the 975 on sale so it's only $10 more that the 965.

Tried both 1:1 and Zoom to no avail. I'm taking it back tomorrow. Looks like Gateway broke the 1920x1080 VGA as of the Feb 07 monitor with the 5.5 OSD.

Yes, I did connect to the PC and it does the same thing over the VGA connections but not the DVI connection.
