so today i just got a brand new sony vaio desktop.

2 gig ram
300 gig rom
256 mgb invidia 7600
Blu-ray drive

all wireless pehriferals (sp?)

i can even watch tv through it.

but the one problem is that i dont have a monitor that will work with it. it says i need a 1080p. so whats the best to get? im lookin at 22 inchers

[OA Baller]

you can use any monitor you want. theres no need to spend money when u dont need to.

[jacksonblue]

aren't monitor higher res than 1080p HDTV's anyway?

or am I just being completely idiotic?

[OA Baller]

pretty much anything over 24 inches is higher than 1080p

If you're rich enough to buy that **** then get a Dell 2407WFP-HC. 24" and 1080P.

ive tried every cable in the house to find one to get my monitor to plug in. it has these weird dual male serial ports, which if i recall correctly are the same as the hd connectors for an x-box 360.

You could just plug in the VGA or DVI port on the video card.

your motherboard should just have a VGA output.

You need a DVI supporting monitor.

this one good? i got the computer on base so i got like 400 off, ill check there tomorrow for a decent monitor

You bought a ****ing Sony desktop with a Blu Ray player. It's a sin to not buy a 1080P monitor. No 22" does real 1080P. Buy the Dell 2407WFP-HC and nothing else.

To watch Blu-rays you need to have a monitor with HDCP. I'm in a similar situation, and I'm probably going to go with a 22" Hanns G.
