    Hi , Help with Connecting XBOX to PC Monitor

    H there,

    there are several cables that can be used to connect the console to a pc monitor, most used is probably the the vga cable. You can find it here :

    support.xbox.com/.../connect-xbox-360-console-tv


    I don't know the price and you might also need something else to connect audio, depending on the monitor (if it has speakers or not)

    If you have any questions, just let us know

    Xbox 360 and hdmi 1.4

    Well HDMI standard is supposed to be backwards friendly so if your display supports a newer version it shouldn't matter. I think it's any early version like HDMI 1.1-1.2 , but like I said if you're getting a new monitor with HDMI there shouldn't be any
    issue.

    I think going for a 2560x1440 PC gaming or professional monitor is going overkill for any console gaming even next gen. Unless you have a gaming or work PC would go with a couple of cheaper monitors. If you want it to so you can have a PC screen up while
    you game on the other I would invest in a PC monitor and then go for a 30"+ 1080p TV. Then you can also use the TV as an second screen for the PC whenever you're not gaming plus support for older connections you might find you want at some point

    What do you play on?

    For the Xbox One - 43" Samsung - it replaced the last Samsung I bought with my Xbox 360, so figured it was a decent investment.

    For the PC - an Asus 23 inch monitor, and an LG monitor switched to vertical for a second screen.

    And for retro gaming - a 38" Phillips currently connected to an Xbox 360 and a PS3, plus a small 15" or so portable TV for older consoles which haven't been converted to run through HDMI yet...

    Your Gaming Setup And Accessories

    Desk with 2 monitors (One curved 27" monitor and the other is a 40" 4K tv), PC (connected to both the monitor and tv), Astro a50s (PC/XB1), elgato hd60s (for the random times I do try to stream), XB1X, Switch, and PS4 (all connected to the 4K tv).

    The screen difference isn't that bad cause I'm usually playing on one and have a Twitch/Mixer stream or Netflix/Hulu/Crunchyroll up on the other.

    As a side note my monitor is 1080p 144zh and my TV is 4K 60fps.

    I have recently brought a 165hz monitor to use with Xbox series s but I cannot turn on 165hz

    Hi,

    What is the make and model of the monitor?

    Unlike a TV, PC gaming monitors do not need to conform to TV timing standards. The 165Hz refresh is for connecting to a PC via a display port cable. So you can ignore that.

    As for 120Hz, the monitor needs to support exactly 120Hz over HDMI to work with an Xbox console. Many older monitors do not do this (they have non standard timings like 119.88Hz). This is not an issue with a PC because a PC will just run whatever the monitor is capable of. Consoles need exact timings.
