I currently have an ASUS VW226H 25.5" HD monitor. It's currently hooked up to my gaming PC through an old Radeon X1950XT via DVI and looks fantastic. However, the HD5850 lists all of these fancy features available through its built in HDMI port. Normally, I'd just hook my new rig with the HD5850 up through the HDMI port and that's that, but the catch is that i'd also like it to hook my XBOX360 up to it via HDMI, and the monitor only has one HDMI port.
So my question is, would it be worth it to invest in an HDMI switch to hook both up via the one available HDMI port, or would the XBOX on the HDMI and the PC on the DVI do exactly the same thing without losing anything on the PC end?
