Which HDMI cable is the best for my Xbox 360?

Which XBOX 360 cable will yield the best overall image? VGA or Component? (PLEASE NO HDMI/ELITE SPAM)?

  • I would just like to know which connection provides the best image and, more importantly, why. Please do not post answers like "tehy are both teh suxx0rz, XBox Elite/HDMI ftw! ...show more

  • Answer:

    Both Component and VGA can output at 1080p, but not all manufacturers allow fo their component inputs to do 1080p. Really, the best cable depends on your television. The biggest issue I've heard about the VGA is that the colors tend to be washed out while the component are sharper. This isn't always the case though since all TVs are not made the same. Also note that your 360 cannot upconvert DVDs over component. I would say try them both out. You will most likely need to tweak the video settings with the VGA cable to get the optiamal picture. If the VGA still isn't what you want after trying it out, then return it. You might waste your time, but you get your money back at least.

well see you'll get a 1080i regardless unless you have a 1080p tv with either of those and if you had a 1080p you'd be getting an hdmi anyways, now its just a matter of finding good quality cables for them with good metal connectors.

The VGA can display up to 1080p while the component displays up to 1080i. But there's no noticeable difference between the two. I use component on my 360.
