Okay, this might help someone... then again it might not. I have done much research on getting the most out of my Xbox 360 and here is what I did. I have a Samsung 941BW 19" widescreen monitor with the Psyclone VGA cables. I was having trouble with the colors on the monitor and from looking across multiple forums I came across the solution. I had to turn down the RGB saturation on the monitor itself and since the monitor runs at 1440x900 native, and the 360 does not have this resolution I run it at 1280x1024. I know, this is not the correct aspect ratio but it is the smallest pixel size next to 1080i/p and works great. Here are some pics of my simple but very functional setup. Like I said, I just thought this might help someone having the same trouble I did. I had to turn down my saturation almost to zero. Now, everything works great!
