I'm looking for a new desktop monitor to go with a new Xbox 360 and for PC gaming. I've been trying to find a monitor that supports HDMI, has decent gaming specs, and isn't too expensive. Size is not an issue, but I'd prefer to keep costs down.
I've read a lot about the Gateway FHD2400, and it sounds like a good option. The issues like BLB I've read about here, however, and the fact that I could do with a smaller and cheaper monitor make me think that there could be better alternatives.
The Gateway HD2200 is $200 cheaper, and that matters to me, and it also supports HDMI, but it doesn't support 1080p. I've read that the Xbox 360 can only render 720p and then upscales for 1080p, so the difference is negligible. Is this true?
Are there any other alternatives? What do you think is my best bet?
