Computer Monitor recommendation

Hi,

I currently have an XBOX, PS3 and PC and I would like to connect them all to one PC monitor.

So I am looking for a PC monitor that has component, DVI, HDMI, and sound so that I can connect them all to one monitor.

Does a monitor that does all of the above exist? If so can you recommend one for me.

Many thanks

Yeah but the resolution generally for TV's isn't as good as a monitor, and I don't something that is massive... less than 30" really

Re: Computer Monitor recommendation

perhaps something like http://www.ebuyer.com/product/153223 has HDMI DVI and VGA

Componant can switch to VGA http://www.tvcables.co.uk/cgi-bin/tv...les/op=eq.html

Re: Computer Monitor recommendation

Hmmm that Ebuyer one might do it, but isn't the response time too slow 5ms?

Re: Computer Monitor recommendation

AFAIK anything less than 16ms will give no visible ghosting. I have a LCD TV hooked up to my XB360 and PC and runs freeview and its perfectly fine. Bear in mind that LCD whether on a monitor or TV is still LCD and has all the ups and downs on in the TV and monitor stakes. Unless your a perfectionist any LCD TV with < 16ms + VGA should be suitable
