    Using Xbox One With PC Monitor


    im currently using a Ben Q XL2420Z connected with an HDMI cable.i understand that the Xbox one pushes 60 HZ but I'm wondering if it would improve quality slightly if I bought an HDMI-Display port cable or a HDMI-Dual link DVI. I'm hoping someone has some
    information. My monitor also doesn't display anything higher than 60 Hz unless it's through a dual link or display port. Any info?

    :)

    Yes, I have tried all the resolution options on the 360.

    Is the 360 set to widescreen or normal? How about your monitor? It sounds like there is a setting mismatch on one or the other.

    Hey Dirty, HDMI cables are always better to use in my opinion because you get your sound and video all in one cable. It might improve the quality slightly but your monitor is only going to display whatever the highest resolution it supports. you can try
    it and see though and then make sure you change the setting on your monitor.

    How can I connect my xbox to my dell monitor via HDMI?

    This is an "All-In-One" (AIO) PC. That means, that this is not just a monitor, but this is a complete PC inside the monitor. And according to the user manual, the HDMI port on the back is only a HDMI 1.4 OUTPUT. Not an Input.

    You can not connect your Xbox console (or any other HDMI device) on that port besides a second monitor, to expand the desktop the PC inside that All-In-One on two monitors for multi monitor use.

    Xbox One HDMI into new TV

    It's not a TV and it's not strictly a monitor either. It's a Samsung Syncmaster400EXN or something similar.

    This is a display with a built in PC, a very old PC as it turns out. The likely reason why it doesn't work for your Xbox is because this old monitor-PC uses HDMI 1.0. The Xbox One is HDMI 1.4.

    You need a new TV or monitor.

    Did you set the 360 itself to 1080p output?
