Hi, I am looking at this LCD to play x360 on. I am planning on getting the MS VGA cable to just plug it straight into the monitor for lagless gameplay.

Will the image fill the entire screen? Any idea how the sharpness/image quality/frame rate/color/etc will be on it?

Otherwise, could you reccomend a different LCD for the same price? I understand this is just a standard business LCD but I'm not looking for HD quality, although I also want it to be standard TV quality.

Will this work for me?

Thanks, Kevin

I have an Xbox 360 with a VGA cable hooked up to my monitor. According to the menus it can output in 1280x1024 resolution, which is the native resolution for that HP panel. It should look good, but keep in mind that some games work only in widescreen mode so on a 4:3 panel like this one, you'll see black bars at the top and bottom. You'll also need a separate set of speakers.
