high definition content protection it's basically encryption that's supposed to make it harder for you to rip stuff I guess

The market for an affordable, high quality display like the westinhouse is not the same as the one for a $25,000 plasma :confused:

It's impossible to get the xbox 360 to display the proper aspect ratio on this monitor via VGA as far as I can tell. This is so irritating. I bought this stupid cable so I didn't need to use a component switcher.

VGA cables can support high resolutions so the 2405fpw won't know the difference between an xbox and a PC. It should look better assuming the component input isn't truly HD.

I wouldn't drop a lot of money on any LCD that didn't have DVI

I just picked one up at best buy yesterday and I'm loving it so far. I have a quick question though. I am having issues with the EZTune software. After installing my PC hangs and is completely unresponsive once the software loads. I had to reboot in safe mode and disable it in msconfig. It...

I wouldn't mind using aspect scaling for 1280x720 mode. I just don't want to drop 2 grand for some TV I will never watch TV on, that's my only concern. Apparently there is a new version of the 2405 that supports HDCP so I may have to take a look at that I guess

hello please help :)

I've already got a 65 lb CRT on my desk for PC gaming. It will collapse if I stick a FW900 on there too. I may be moving it around a bit too.

I've been looking for a decent LCD for use with an xbox360. I've read countless spec sheets and I am still having trouble deciding. I don't want an HDTV because I don't really watch tv, I just download individual episodes sometimes. I'm going to be using it as PC monitor as well. What...

You posted this in sh/sc too xd

I think the maximum resolution on an external monitor that laptop can do is 1600x1200.

FW900? Is that that 24" widescreen crt? Does the xbox automatically send the black bars to the monitor? That monitor is 16:10 and you can't do 1:1 scaling on a crt like you can on an lcd.

Yeah, okay. Benchmarks please.

I hope gprime posts a pic in 480p mode for comparison

This can't be 480p: http://g-prime.net/x360/pixels.jpg

good luck running any game newer than quake3 at 2560x1600. It won't be feasible to game at that resolution for a while since right now games are advancing faster than graphics cards (unlike the earlier days of 3d cards).

Is that an issue with the panel itself or the console?

Does the 2405 exhibit any video noise? Ghosting, that sort of thing?

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Once you zero out a drive there is nothing left. No super secret mystery government scanning equipment can read your data after that. I think I trust a specialist in the field working for the government over "Steel Chicken" on HardOCP who...
