360 and 1920x1200

ArchAnGeL · 11 Jan 2009 at 19:13

I was thinking of getting the hansG 28" monitor which I would probably like to use my 360 on occasionally

how does the 360 handle 1920x1200?

Reviews of the monitor says it will stretch to 1920x1200. Is the stretching noticable?

360 supports 1080p - 1920x1080

The 360 will use the resolution 1920x1080 and it will stretch to 1920x1200

It's hardly noticeable but it's not 100% perfect

looks like my choice (governed my choice) is then a 24" (dell or iiyama) with 1920x1080 or the 28" hannsG with stretching

what do you guys think?

I use a 24" (1920x1200 Resolution) and the stretching isn't enough to bother me at all!

I've got a NEC 26" monitor and I don't notice the stretching much, obviously if you sit there and carefully look you will see it but like Marky says nothing to bother you.

I'm using a 24" 1920x1200 monitor and don't notice the stretching on 1080p

Got a 28" 1920x1200 monitor and use 1280x768 (connected by vga). It's slightly closer to the 16:10, and doesn't look any worse to me than setting the 360 to a max of 1920x1080

games look a bit blurry due to them being scaled from 720p and the 16:10 thing but its far from bad looking.

Admitidly I am using a PS3, but the Hans-g 28" looks brilliant if you're wanting a computer monitor aswell. It looks very slightly less sharp using the avg slot, so might be worth using that for the 360 and hdmi for the pc
