LG L246WP

Okay, my final purchase, I think, is an LG Flatron 246WP-BN. 24 inches, 1920x1200 (but I can play games at 1680x1050 at 1:1 pixel mapping and it looks great and is not too small at all), P-MVA, no noticeable input lag (it's on average 22 ms I believe), 8 ms, scales everything I need accurately...

Does the Dell 2007WFP display PS3 and Xbox 360 games correctly at 16:9 with black bars on the top and bottom? See, PS3 and Xbox 360 games are at 16:9, while the 2007WFP is 16:10. According to my research, I think the 2007WFP's 1:1 option will display the image correctly, but it will be...

You can get an Apple Cinema Display on ebay for cheap.

Try turning off rapid response or whatever they call it in the monitor's menu.

Thanks a lot for the help so far, guys. Okay, so I'm thinking of getting either a Gateway HD2200 or a Dell SP2208WFP. The Gateway HD2200's online manual http://support.gateway.com/s/M...s/Monitors/8512500.pdf describes the scaling options. They look weird. Looks like my only hope for 16:9...

So uh, how does 720p material look like enlarged out to fit a 1680x1050 LCD screen (while still maintaining aspect ratio) VS. 720p material on a natively 720p LCD TV (if those even exist... if there are those other than 13something x 768 or something...)?? EDIT: Well you see I'm...

Hey, would a Dell 2007WFP scale properly for Xbox 360 and PS3? I heard that there was a color banding problem, but in revisions they fixed it in Desktop mode. Can I use a 360 and PS3 on the 2007WFP in Desktop mode, and will it still scale properly?

Also, I hear that some people are having issues with blurry text on the Dell SP2208WFP? And one more thing... Dell's page for the monitor http://accessories.us.dell.com...dhs&cs=19&sku=320-6252 lists a 2 ms (grey to grey) response time. Hmmm.... does this monitor use RTC/overdrive, then?

So with the Dell SP2208WFP, you can play Xbox 360 and PS3 games in correct 16:9 (not stretched to 16:10)? Which connections are you guys using for the 360 and PS3, by the way?

Ohh. My Xbox 360 is an older one that doesn't have an HDMI port. But, I could try using a VGA to DVI adapter and thus plugging it into the monitor's DVI port... not sure if that would scale properly. An old ATI card of mine came with a DVI (analog one, I think) to VGA adapter. The pins are...

(If you recognize this post, you may have seen it over at Hardforum. Sorry, I just need some answers and the best way is to reach a lot of people) I recently purchased an HP w2007 monitor. Its native res is 1680x1050 (so it's 16:10 aspect ratio). I hooked my Xbox 360 to it via the...

What monitor are you using, btw? You can buy an Xbox 360 VGA cable to connect it directly to the monitor. I suggest getting a used official one online: it's cheaper and the official one seems to be the only one that doesn't have a ghost-like double image behind everything (even when...
