Xbox 360 VGA HD AV Cable Accessories

Answer to James Ashmore You plug it in to your monitor, if your monitor has to types of ports vga and dvi ports you can have your PC and Xbox settup on the same monitor at the same time and switch between the two. To get the sound to work you plug the 2 phono leads in to the phone scocket adaptor which comes with the cable (unlike the gameware cable) then plug that in to the back off your PC into the line in socket (the blue socket on your sound card ) and then you will get sound form your speakers. (please note you may have to got to your sound options on your PC and unmute the line in if you have no sound)

I have had an Xbox 360 ever since they were released in the UK and I have an old Sony widescreen TV. This was great until recently as many games use such small fonts or icons that I can't actually make out what they are. Once I plugged this baby into my Xbox and computer monitor and then got a convertor for the sound (the use of phono was a bit of a pain) the clarity was fantastic! If you can't justify the cost of a new HD TV then this is exactly what you need - maybe also a convertor for the phono connectors also.

hi there. i am thinking of getting an xbox360 and have a full hd moniter but wonder if this cable would connect to it. my monitor is an acer x223HQ and info is scarce as it is a fairly new model. Any Advice would be much appreciated. Many thx in advance :)

In Response to Michael Fearon: I agree that many people have not tested and compared the VGA to component and HDMI outputs, BUT, Those who have compared will have noticed that, although you need to pay more attention to the correct settings, a VGA signal is stronger and is as clear as a Components or HDMI signal. For anybody who has had a washed out picture, you may have a faulty cable, loose connection or a monitor that isn't supported by the product. Personally i have found VGA to be as good quality as HDMI and more convenient for me as a gamer as my 360 doesn't have a HDMI port and neither does the monitor that i use for my 360. Frame Rates Are NOT effected by this cable at all. Michael Fearon's comments should be looked upon carefully

I bought this product 8 months ago and i cant say a bad thing about it. It connects straight to my 22" monitor, i set the right resolution through the xbox (the same way you set it if it was connected to a HD TV.) and off it goes. I have both my Computer and my Xbox connected up to the same monitor which is very handy if i'm looking up guides to get 100% of somthing. I managed to find a cable so i could connect the sound and have the sound comming out through my PC speakers too which works a treat.5/5 for me and at a good price.
