[QUOTE="ak47, post: 93920"] DONE N DUSTED DONESKIES!!!! See that link above for my NEW LCD monitor for a cheap AUD$445.00 - 22inch hell yeah Bought the VGA - 15pinner.........with optical plug in the back for optimum sound - i like how xbox have intergrated the optical with there cables now to the point the clarity is next to none - chrystal clear edges, and the on screen text is like 3d sticking out at you. there is minimal ghosting - this comes down to the 5ms response time. the main gripe i do have is the contrast, the blacks n whites and colour definition.............i think this is to do with the vga cable and not component..........component makes the colours more vibrant, and i have taken that for granted with my ole CRT. also there is an in issue with the screen on angle.................if playing with mates and u sit 1m to the left of the screen u will notice some fading...keep in mind i am 1m ayway from the screen thus thats like a 45 degree angle.........u can see it clearly, but u lose quality - just a tad coz its an lcd monitor and not tv..........u can sit as close as you want.....................i did this and sat immediately in front of, like an office desk.........this is where the puppy shines................it is rediculous, how much better pro evo looks........................REDICULOUS there's also about 6 settings on the xbox i have to find which is the best..........with VGA cable you dont get the options of 720p, or 1080i..........u get the lcd pc options of pixelation.........ie 1388 x 768 or 1788 x 1050, and there is about 6 of these............i need to hit the web today and find the recommendation of that setting.............i tried 3 of them and i cant really tell........... BUT GEARS OF WAR ON LCD.....................IS LIKE GOING TO THE MOVIES..............REDICULOUS DEFINITION OF DETAIL..............but where is lacks or could improve is in the dark dark areas, which come up a lil grey.........the amount of times i got pinned by KRYLL (those flying bullets) was ******* me off...i thought i was in light.........there is brightness on the game setting and brightness on the lcd.............adjusting these did help, but really the CRT owns in this regard.............the transition from dark to light on a CRT is next to none...........i even noticed this at my mates house on tuesday with his LCD Soniq TV.............and we all know the LCD's lack in the contrast definition............playing games like GEARS, and Splinter Cell will be effected by this..............but at the end of the day i am sports gamer.............i havent loaded up madden yet..........if i did i would not be here, i'd be at home i also noticed if the screen is slighty higher than your eyes horizontally..........u get a better black ratio............i need to find something to make this hight..........if the screen is a little lower than your line of sight...............it loses the black definition............IF U HAVE AN LCD JUST STAND UP, SEE HOW BRIGHT IT GOES.............THEN CROUCH DOWN AND SEE HOW DARK IT GOES..........I WISH THERE IS A TILTING OPTION ON THE STAND........MAYBE THERE IS I WAS SOO ****** AT THE TIME............I NEVER EVEN LOOKED Anywho the X360 - not that it needed it.........has a new heartbeat........i will be playing all weekend 1m from the screen............PRO EVO on LCD is BS......i know the graphcis fail in comparison to other ***les, but this really takes the cake with the optimum gameplay. Tiger Woods will also shine shine shine......finally i wont have to triple check the figures n stats, as the numbers will be clear sharp and sticking out at me.....and the graphics, well Tiger Woods is like a phantasy land u go into, and play golf.........i love it.
