What should i buy TV or Moniter????

A TV will not have the resolutions, response time, contrast, etc... and all that stuff required for using windows. When typing and stuff it won't be good at all. You might get by for gaming and standing back. I'd go for a monitor. Remember that all 22" panels are the same so the quality of all 22" monitors is pretty much the same. I'd go for the Acer 221622" which is very nice and cheap. If you want to plug the console or TV into it you can get a seperate modulator to convert the signal to VGA or DVI. Or get a campture card for your PC. There is no need to spend the money on a monitor with video input...the difference in price will get you a capture card that will do the same thing...only problem is your PC has to be on to watch TV or use your console.

if you want to be able to plug an xbox into a monitor, dell makes a 20" ultrasharp with auxiliary inputs on it. that may just be what u need.

Ok i have found this moniter

One guy sais
"One of the main reasons I purchased this monitor was for the 3 inputs. This way I wouldn't have to keep manually switching the cables over everytime I wanted to play Xbox."

and it seems to have good reviews and be of good quality for the price.

Which should suffice for TV and xbox if i cant plug it into monitor?

But this means no HD for me on monitors - BTW does the 8800gt actually give out hd? It doesnt even have hdmi out?

Get a monitor. A TV will have a very very low resolution compared to a monitor, probably too low to even be usable. Just get a TV tuner card for your PC and you can still watch TV and play games through that.

get both!!!! but i think monitor is better, however TV is more convenient... Resolution? yes...On TV is low.

ok thanks for clearing up the HD bit. They dont market it very well at all do they??

I ended up buying a 19" LG 1440x900 with 2000:1 and 5ms, DVI-D and VGA for £125 which i thought was a bargain. So using this monitor with 8800GT in DVI is essentially HD?

This leaves money to spare for my new GPU / TV card.
