Hey all,

I got my Xbox 360 Premium in March this year.
I'm hearing around the forums that Premiums don't come with HDMI cables...

I thought all this time that I had HD gaming... Have Premiums ALWAYS come without HDMI cables? Is there a way to check whether or not im viewing my XBOX in HD?

Thanks,

Marky
 
They don't come with HDMI cables, and if you bought it in March it won't even have a HDMI port.

The connections supplied with the Premium are component.

Check the display settings to see if you're running HD, should say 720p.

Is there a difference in using component and HDMI? I think im using component...
 
Component should be fine.

As a general rule for HD connections it's HDMI > VGA > Component, although it can differ between different model tv's.

You're just confusing terminology. Using the component cable with the switch to HDTV, you will be running in high definition.
