Anyone using the Vga cable for 360? How do you feel it looks compared to component? Some accounts indicate Vga is washed out and blurry, others say it is clearer.

In addition to greedycheese's question, I'd like to ask one of my own.

What resolutions does the 360 output over the VGA cable? Will it allow 1440x900 and/or 1680x1050?

Hey Cheese, I have seen the cable in action and it is good.. The quality you receive will depend on your display.. I saw it running on a 21 inch LCD (samsung) with no issues. I known a few people with older CRT's that complain of issues.

Late.

Its good to see the things we need to work, do work

I am currently using the Microsoft VGA cable on my Dell 2405FPW with a 1920x180 resolution.

It looks outstanding.

This monitor also has component inputs, but they are known to be a bit crappy.

The video quality on VGA is very crisp. The colors are accurate as far as I can tell. They are bright and even, with smooth saturation and value shifts. I think most problems with VGA comes form people not setting up their monitors correctly, or using a resolution setting on the 360 that is forcing their monitors to do wacky scaling.

My 360 looks better on this monitor than it does on many 40inch+ HDTVs I've seen, other tahn one or two DLPs.

I'm still waiting to see a 360 HDMI cable

How do you guys get the sound to work along with your vga cables. I wanna buy one cus i dont have a hi def tv and i heard it would look hi def on the computer monitor cus of the resolutions and all of that but do u need any extra set of speakers to make it work or no?
