This is mostly for playing the Xbox and TV watching (rarely PC used). Cost is not an issue. I could get a 30" Dell for less than 1k (about 800-900) or a 42" Samsung (2008 Model) for about the same price. If you could choose, which one would it be? |

I would rather have the monitor, I would probably use it for pc every once in a while, and the decent res would be nice. |

Are u using it for PC also? Make sure that 30" monitor will scale well with XBox360 games which are 1080p. TVs are cheaper. |

Playing Xbox and watch tv? Go for the TV. The 30" has no scaler and you'll struggle with input and resolutions. For PC gaming, go with the 30". |

Title was a little misleading. However this is what I am thinking of. Samsung LN46A650 or Dell 3008WFP For the PC I have 3x1 U2410 ATM (w/ Eyefinity 6) This would be playing Netflix, Xbox 360, and TV (AND it would be connected to the PC Via HDMI/DVI). |

TV only. No questions asked. |

Be careful, Samsungs are infamous for input lag. Sharp 700UN series has little to no lag in game mode. |

Why won't you just use your center monitor (eyefinity) for XBox. |

HDTVs are kings for gaming, 30" monitors are kings for work. |
