I recently got a Xbox 360 "E Model" with the Xbox 360 VGA HD AV Cable to connect to my vga monitor but realized that the new E model Xbox was incompatible with the cable. Is there anyone that successfully connected their Xbox 360 E Model to a VGA Monitor?

P.S I've seen a lot of Monitor Converter Switch Adapters boxes to plug in rca to be converted to VGA on amazon are these any good?

No, those converters you mentioned are not a good idea. You would be converting composite video to VGA. It would look awful. Unless your monitor is a CRT, don't even think about it. RCA only supports up to 480p, and even then it is very noisy/ugly. haybale64 has the best option for you, HDMI to VGA. However, if your monitor has HDMI, use that instead. If your monitor has DVI, get an HDMI to DVI adapter.

If you are using the E model, just use the audio RCA outputs from the AV out. If you are using the Slim, you could use the toslink/optical audio out or get one of thesehttp://www.amazon.com/Audio-Cable-Adapter-XBOX-360-Slim...

If you have a original 360, you can also use that piece linked above.
