Samsung T260HD vs Samsung LE32A436T1D

i have decided to get one of these 2 monitors/tv, but i have no exp in this area so am hoping you guys will help me out with the pro's and con's

i will use the monitors in a duel screen set up, so i can use the first monitor for PC only and the second monitor as a second PC screen or 360/ps3/wii/sky+


Samsung T260HD

Samsung T260HD this screen for PC only

Samsung T260HD second screen will have these inputs

x2 HDMI (one port for ps3 other for 360)
x1 component (Wii)
scart (sky+)

£712.98 inc VAT

I have practicly decided on buying 2 monitors/tv's but i dont know which one, i will use the PC for gaming, a lot of photoshop and video editing so which ever model i get will need to be good for these tasks,

im looking to buy 1 screen in the next week or so and the second screen the first week in january

Well your second choice isnt full HD for a start...

Resolution: 1366 x 768
Contrast Ratio: 8500:1

These figures are both pretty pants tbh...

If you want a 32" TV that will do HD then you're limited as most proper HD TV's start at 37"...

Try this one: http://www.home-entertainment.toshi...n-size/32-Regza-LCD-TV-XV-Series/?showBy=size

I did a quick search and one of those badboys can be had for about £465 inc vat

no full HD isnt a massive factor to me tbh 1080p is a bonus but im more than happy at 720p tbh

Yea... but the 1920 res is gonna be real handy in windows... 1368 res on a 32" is gonna look like old VGA, everything will be huge and you would be kicking yourself wanting more space!

in that case i should go with the SAMSUNG T260HD, only question is about the digital input would that mean its a dvi input?

You can connect a DVI output to an HDMI input too.

ino that but the T260HD is listed as having

x2 HDMI these will be taken up by my xbox 360 and ps3, (which leaves no port for the pc DVI to HDMI)

component will be used by the Wii

scart will be used by sky+

it lists a digital imput but doesnt specify what kind of digital input it is. what im hoping is that its a DVI port, but i dont know

- Interface: Analog / Digital / 2x HDMI / Component

is the bold unlined text mean DVI?
