DVI Gameswitch

[Oki007]

I wanted to find out if anyone has bought a DVI Gameswitch, model number DVI-GS3-2. I want to use it with my xbox 360 but wanted to see if anyone else has used it. I saw it at www.aptolution.com.

Why not use a dvi switch from monoprice?

I don't understand why you would want that. First of all its so expensive. Looks to be over 200 dollars. If you're trying to play your xbox360 on your computer monitor that takes in DVI, most likely the monitor takes in VGA as well and you can just get the Xbox 360 VGA cord for like 20-40bucks.

It is unlikely your monitor only takes DVI. In the case it does I'm not sure what you could do. But for around the same price as this piece of crap switching thing you can just buy another monitor.

If its to connect to your TV that takes in DVI. And you so happen to have an xbox that does NOT have HDMI. It may still be cheaper to pick up an Xbox Arcade (no hard drive) and just swap your hard drive over and you'll have a HDMI xbox.

I'm trying to play it on TV. However, the problem is that I also have a Media Center PC which is currently connected through DVI, and PS3 as well and my TV only has one Component and one DVI connection. I don't think the option of using DVI switch is viable as I will have all these things in a rack.

Any other option?

No idea if this would work well but it sure as hell is cheaper.

This is not a bad option but I want to display it at 1080p. Use PS2 as BD player, it was a good investment since now HDD-DVD's are pretty much history.

Would an HDMI switcher work? They're cheaper.
Why won't that cheap DVI switcher not work at 1080p?
