|
 |
So i've been google-ing for a couple of hours, read most of the threads here and i still dont know what samsung to get, help me out please
this is what i'm looking for
- 16:9
- 23" or 24"
- i want to buy an xbox360 and have the console and my pc plugged at the same time at my monitor - this means: hdmi and incorporated speakers (for xbox sound, right?)
- 1920 x 1080 native that allows me to play games at 1600x900 or lower without any problems (old video card)
I wanted to buy the 2494HM but someone here said it doesnt scale well if you're not playing at its native resolution and recommended a led monitor ?!
ok so i found an XL2370 but this one doesnt have speakers !!
help

Would you consider using the x360 VGA adapter (which has stereo RCAs for sound) and then just running audio to the line in on your audio card (so you can use your PC speakers)?

No TFT monitor scales down well. That is not a sign of a bad monitor, that's just a technical limitation. TFT monitors have a fixed number of pixels: Every pixel on screen is in fact a physical piece of hardware.
You can't have it both ways on that front

So its true, that 249HM dosnt scale well with lower resolution ? Should i buy that xl2370 along with some random cheap stereo speakers ? Or ? |
Some speaker setups have the autio hookups on the sub if you have one. My logitech G51's do and is how I had my xbox hooked up

Console ports don't need much more than a G92 like you have, unless it's one of the really crappy ones
